Songtext Sinner Jarboe

Sinner

And what do I do
with the gift you present to me
The one no one else would buy
They would not accept the filthy premise
Of your most terrible innocence
So let them say how you were wild
For what you really were was tender
Yes how you screamed all through the night
Yet silent tears streamed down in morning light
Most beautiful my lonely sinner

So come over dear sister
Let them say how you ran wild
So come over dear sister
You gave birth to this devil child
How you screamed all through the night
In your glass cage and crimson neon light
Most beautiful my lonely sinner

So come over dear sister
Though you were born down there in the dark shack
These pearls you now wear once hung down my Duchess' back
So carefully wrapped round the precious throat
Just twisted this here shiny rope
Beautiful my lonely sinner
Most beautiful my lonely sinner
So carefully wrapped round the precious throat
And yes did she -like you- thus... choke
