Sinner's Prayer
Sully Erna Lyrics

To love the right, Yet do so wrong.
Struggling to follow the morally correct path and constantly failing, succumbing to temptation and compromising on morals.

To be the weak, Yet burn to be so strong.
Feeling powerless in certain situations, but yearning for inner strength and resilience to overcome challenges.

Go rider, although your ride has been through lies.
Encouraging someone to keep going despite the hardships they've faced and the dishonesty that may have been involved.

Go rider, see your soul through the devils eyes.
Urging someone to introspect and analyze their soul through the lens of the opposing force, the devil to gain a new perspective.

If I could live my life again, Would I live that life in sin?
Questioning the choice of one's actions and motives as the possibility of starting anew with the knowledge of the past looms over.

Go rider, go ride into the night.
Commanding someone to continue their journey fearlessly, despite the darkness and uncertainty ahead.

Go rider, now see your soul through a woman's eyes.
Encouraging someone to gain a different, feminine perspective and understanding of their soul.

I am sinner. Hold my prayers up to the sun. (Hold my prayers up to the sun)
Acknowledging oneself as a wrongdoer and expressing the desire to seek redemption by making amends or asking for forgiveness from a higher power.

Heaven's closed for what I've done.
Feeling barred from forgiveness and divine mercy due to one's own actions, leading to a sense of hopelessness and despair.

What have I done? (What have I done?)
Repeating the question out of disbelief or shame that stems from the realization of committing a wrong action or causing harm either knowingly or unknowingly.

I am sinner. (I am sinner) Hold my prayers up to the sun. (Hold my prayers up to the sun)
Repeating the admission of guilt and the plea for forgiveness in earnest hope that redemption can be achieved.
