A Lot Like Sin

(album: A Dying Machine - 2018)

Grasp for your pound of flesh and spite
Drain all life till you get it right
Tear away both flesh and bone
Discard life or die alone

A lesson only the weak learn
Abandon hope and return

Oh, you're a lot like sin
Could you spare me your flames
While I break you in
Oh, I am just what you need
Could you spare me your games
You are just like me
You're just like me

Malice provides where mercy fails
Our legacy weaves a morbid tale
Why walk the path to a fate unknown
Turn to wrath or die alone

Scars that only the years provide
They become your reasons to fight

Oh, you're a lot like sin
Could you spare me your flames
While I break you in
Oh, I am just what you need
Could you spare me your games
You are just like me
You're just like me

Kneel when you can't forgive, you can't erase
Crawl when you've lost the strength, you are disgraced
Rise and reciprocate, we yield no more

Oh, you're a lot like sin
Could you spare me your flames
While I break you in
Oh, I am just what you need
Could you spare me your games
You are just like me
Yeah

(You're just like me, yeah)
You're just like me
You're just like me
