No love for a sinner


No love for a sinner The battered and broken heart pleading for a new start. Searching for affection in a needle set for injection. Using pleasure to mask the pain that's been hidden amongst a sin filled stain. No love for a sinner Who's only love is for deceit covered by clever words that sound so sweet. With eyes that draw you in just to push you out again. Ones with a sweet embrace but lead to distraught in every case. No love for a sinner That tries to undo the past but its tightly bound to them like a cast. That wants to do right but their faults held over them in the light Who have been just as hurt as those they drug through the dirt. No love for a sinner. It seems we can never break free From the judgment of our actions or the guilt that leaves no traction To rise above our darkest desires and stand reborn like a Phoenix from the fire. So love yourself even on the most troubling day despite what these other sinners may say
