sinners
Lauren Aquilina Lyrics

Our lives are stores, waiting to be told
Our lives are like books, waiting to be written and shared with others.

In search of silver linings, we discovered gold
While looking for positive outcomes, we stumbled upon something even better.

And judgment taught us that our hearts were wrong
Society taught us that our natural feelings were inappropriate or immoral.

But they're the ones that we'll look down upon
Despite being told our feelings are wrong, we will refuse to feel shame or regret for them.

The rules say our emotions don't comply
Society attempts to control our emotions by dictating which ones are acceptable or not.

But we'll defy the rules until we die
We refuse to conform to society's expectations and will continue to express our emotions freely.

So let's be sinners to be saints
We will embrace our perceived moral shortcomings as a way to find our own sense of morality and purpose.

And let's be winners by mistake
We will make mistakes, but we will still come out on top by staying true to ourselves.

The world may disapprove
Society may disapprove of our choices and actions, but we will not let it bother us.

But my world is only you
The only thing that matters to me is the love and connection I share with you.

And if we're sinners then it feels like heaven to me
Our actions may be considered immoral by some, but they bring us great happiness and fulfillment.

You showed me feelings I've never felt before
You have opened me up to new and intense emotions that I never knew I was capable of experiencing.

We're making enemies, knocking on the devil's door
Our actions and beliefs are causing conflict with others, but we see it as a necessary part of exploring our own morality.

But how can you expect me not to eat,
How can I be expected to resist temptation when it feels so good?

When the forbidden fruit tastes so sweet?
When something is forbidden or taboo, it often becomes more alluring and exciting.

Our hearts are too ruthless to break
Our hearts are strong and unyielding, unable to be broken by others or society's expectations.

Let's start fires for heaven's sake
Let's create excitement and passion in our lives, even if it goes against societal norms or expectations.
