Thoughts of a Transient

Verse 1

I see the path of Straight and Narrow.
If I go on trouble will still follow.
I try to see clear,
but I still see me in the mirror.
What's wrong with me?
Why can't you see?
Everything is bad with me.

Chorus

I've been here waiting.
The line is shifting.
Waiting on me to change.
But can it see it under my skin,
My ever blooming sin?
I don't want to venture on..
Goodness is too strange.

Verse 2

Yes I should walk the light,
but I feel no horror in the night.
If you can blend in the shadows.
Does the full moon scare you more than an open meadow?
Oh! The terrors in the bleak!
Your flesh and blood they will not seek.
So you know there's no fear.
Just realize we're not the only ones here.

Chorus

I've been here waiting.
The line is shifting.
Waiting on me to change.
But can it see it under my skin,
My ever blooming sin?
I don't want to venture on..
Goodness is too strange.

Bridge

Lonely is the life I lead,
undo a corrupt seed.
This is the life I lead,
There is no one in my hour of need.
Lonely is the life I lead,
undo a corrupt seed.
This is the life I lead,
There is no one in my hour of need.

Chorus

I've been here waiting.
The line is shifting.
Waiting on me to change.
But can it see it under my skin,
My ever blooming sin?
I don't want to venture on..
Goodness is too strange.
