[Intro]
"Twenty seconds and counting
T minus fifteen seconds, guidance is internal"

[Verse 1]
When I look back upon my life
It`s always with a sense of shame
I`ve always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

[Chorus]
It`s a, it`s a, it`s a, it`s a sin
It`s a sin
Everything I`ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I`ve ever been
Everywhere I`m going to
It`s a sin

[Verse 2]
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn`t quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too


[Chorus]
It`s a, it`s a, it`s a, it`s a sin
It`s a sin
Everything I`ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I`ve ever been
Everywhere I`m going to
It`s a sin

[Bridge]
Father, forgive me
I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf
Then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me
I didn`t believe it
Father, you fought me
`Cause I didn`t care
And I still don`t understand

[Verse 3]
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I`ve always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too


[Chorus]
It`s a, it`s a, it`s a, it`s a sin
It`s a sin
Everything I`ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I`ve ever been
Everywhere I`m going to
It`s a sin

[Post-Chorus]
It`s a, it`s a, it`s a, it`s a sin
It`s a, it`s a, it`s a, it`s a sin

[Outro]
"Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres quia peccavi nimis cogitatione, verbo, opere et omissione. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa."
