Mouth Of The South - Idolatry

These adulterous lips have purged 1,000 lies
I am a wolf in a sheep's disguise
Paralyzed be the fear of failure
But I've already failed in His eyes
Caught up like a thief in a trap
My lust is the noose
And it's wrapped around my neck
I'm suffocated by the weight of regret!

I thought she was my bride
But I forgot she was your daughter
We were blind
We walked like sheep to the slaughter
Father, please forgive me
For I know not what I do
I swore this would be different
But I never followed through

Oh God! Oh God!
What a wretched man I am?
Oh God! Oh God!
Dear God I am not a man

Since when did I become a thief
I reached my hands in the pockets of a God who lives by grace
And I stole the innocence of His child

I know I'm better than this (x3)
Oh God take my lust before I cave and degrade
Something beautiful again

Keep her safe in your arms
And hide her away from me
I am a monster
I am a thief

(Show me how to be a man)

This is not the real me
I long for change
'Cause I want a bride to love
Not an idol to rape!
