I've been sitting in my cell so long
all my memories won't leave me alone
pray to god that he will hear my song
oh, my lord now won't you bring me home

genuflect down on my knees
I pray to the lord won? t you save me please

I've been sitting here so many years
all my prayers are drowned out by my tears
I've been forgotten by my god so
now I bow my head and pray below

sorry lord but I've done wrong
I used to pray to saints but now
I'm forced to sing a sinners song
sorry lord won't you forgive
all my sins have chained me here
I know I payed for what I did

I remember back in the day being young and free
and I never ever ever thought this would happen to me
yeah, I've done some rights but mostly I've done wrong
I used to pray to saints but now I sing a sinners song

sorry lord but I've done wrong
I used to pray to saints but now
I'm forced to sing a sinners song
sorry lord won't you forgive
all my sins have chained me here
I know I payed for what I did

god has left me here so now I see
the only path that's left for me
my soul has finally gone and left this cell
only to be trapped in the gates of hell

a sinners song
