Wages Of Sin Lyrics

Damien:
When we fight and I wanna talk it out
You won't say nothing, nothing at all
You just sit there, you won't open that pretty mouth
I think you like keeping my back up against the wall
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e73579-rosie_thomas~wages_of_sin_lyrics.html ]
Wages of sin, you keep me paying
Wages of sin for wrongs that I've done
Wages of sin, you keep me paying
Wages of sin, one by one

Rosie:
I walk in the apartment, there's clothes thrown all over the place
You're crouched in the corner with tears running down your face
I don't wanna believe what my heart keeps saying
You keep me on the line so you can keep me paying

Damien & Rosie:
Wages of sin, we keep paying
Wages of sin for the wrongs that we've done
Wages of sin, we keep paying
Wages of sin, that's how we have our fun

I remember when I was a little boy out where the cottonwoods grow tall
Trying to make it home through the forest before the darkness falls
Baby all the sounds I heard, even if they weren't real
I was running down that broken path with the devil snapping at my heels

I tried so hard, so hard in every way
Swore someday I'd grow up, just throw it all away
Cried all the tears, baby, that I could cry
Stomached all my fears 'til they came rushing up inside
Darling, I'm losing and it's a mean game
Still I play on just the same

Wages of sin, I keep paying
Wages of sin for some wrong I've done
Wages of sin, well, I keep paying
Wages of sin, one by one
