About Sinner

In “Sinner“, the speaker appears to feel a mix of attraction for an unspecified person, and shame at the desire he or she feels. The speaker regrets that they can’t return to a more innocent age – perhaps childhood, when friendship and even young love were “untainted” by sex. This is encapsulated in the idea of “sin”, a Christian concept that may also have a non-religious value here: the “sin” is the corruption of pure love by adulthood and the passions and lust that come with it. .

Sinner Lyrics

[00:02.66] I wish I knew you
[00:04.95] Back when we were both small
[00:07.26] I wish I knew you
[00:09.82] But I have gotten too tall
[00:12.09] I wish I knew you
[00:14.43] When touch was innocent
[00:16.85] I wish I knew you
[00:19.14] Before it felt like a sin
[00:25.78] Felt like a sin
[00:28.43] Before it felt like a sin
[00:35.12] Felt like a sin
[00:37.94] Before it felt like a sin
[00:42.70] There's nothing for me
[00:44.98] Here, where the world is small
[00:47.47] But how you touch me
[00:49.82] For that I'd leave it all
[00:52.03] Back in the city
[00:54.62] Cold eyes and lips of dust
[00:56.81] So turn and face me
[00:59.09] Turn to the altar of lust
[01:05.82] Felt like a sin
[01:08.43] Before it felt like a sin
[01:10.67] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:13.15] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:15.42] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:18.02] Before it felt like a sin
[01:24.88] Felt like a sin
[01:27.49] Before it felt like a sin
[01:29.70] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:31.83] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:34.36] (Pray for me on your knees)
[01:36.96] Before it felt like a sin
[01:40.09] Stay through the night
[01:44.62] I'd spend the mornings by your side (pray for me in your knees)
[01:49.58] Time slips away (pray for me on your knees)
[01:53.08] (Pray for me on your knees) before the hillside turns to grey
[01:57.76] Pray for me, kneel with me
[02:00.13] Soak in the crystal stream
[02:02.53] Wash the sin from your back
[02:07.24] Cleanse my soul, make me whole
[02:09.47] Dance in the morning glow
[02:11.96] Hold me, we can't go back
[02:14.39] Before it felt like a sin
[02:21.38] Felt like a sin
[02:23.94] Before it felt like a sin
[02:26.06] (Pray for me on your knees)
[02:28.40] (Pray for me on your knees)
[02:30.57] (Pray for me on your knees)
[02:33.18] Before it felt like a sin
[02:39.82] Felt like a sin
[02:42.87] Before it felt like a sin
[02:44.41]
