My Sin Is Living

There's No Escape

My sin is living

My birth a punishment to the world

The anomaly that should never be

The typo in a perfect piece of code

If there's a god up there

They never should have made me

I tried so hard to fix the problem

But even death refuses to take me

I've been stuck here for so damn long

All hope I had of leaving is gone

Trapped inside this prison cell

Daily praying for release

Knowing it will never come

Redemption's out of my reach

Won't somebody come and take me away?

Won't somebody put me out of my misery?

I know I'll never go to heaven

But I don't want to stay in hell

I don't really belong anywhere

As far as I can tell

Guess I'll be stuck forever

Won't find the way out...

Not ever
