Sinner lyrics

And what do I do 
with the gift you present to me 
The one no one else would buy 
They would not accept the filthy premise 
Of your most terrible innocence 
So let them say how you were wild 
For what you really were was tender 
Yes how you screamed all through the night
Yet silent tears streamed down in morning light
Most beautiful my lonely sinner 

So come over dear sister 
Let them say how you ran wild 
So come over dear sister 
You gave birth to this devil child 
How you screamed all through the night 
In your glass cage and crimson neon light
Most beautiful my lonely sinner 

So come over dear sister 
Though you were born down there in the dark shack 
These pearls you now wear once hung down my Duchess' back
So carefully wrapped round the precious throat
Just twisted this here shiny rope 
Beautiful my lonely sinner 
Most beautiful my lonely sinner
So carefully wrapped round the precious throat 
And yes did she -like you- thus... choke
