Saints and Sinners
From 2006 LP Mike Vasas and The Beasts of Burden


Do you remember me?
I was one lost in your promising.
I recall saints and sinners both in our midst
Pathogens waiting to feast and exist
Do you remember me?
Romance had blistered and Paul was a mute.
Groaning beneath the weight of deception,
I sat in your presence and pondered rejection

And all you could do was repeat every word that I said
And all I could do was repeat every moment we had

Do you remember me?
The shadows of night had crept into the day
And surrounded my thought and fought with my will
Is life best in action or better in still?
Do you remember me?
Cold as I was, I was daring to speak
I recall saints and sinners both in our midst
Pathogens waiting to feast and exist

And all you could do was repeat every word that I said
And all I could do was repeat every moment we had
