Sins of the Father - Donna Burke

Written by：David Bowie

Blind in the deepest night

Reaching out grasping for a fleeting memory

All the thoughts keep piercing this broken mind

I fall but I'm still standing motionless

Far in the distance

There is light a light that burns these scars of old

All this pain reminds me of what I am

I'll live I'll become all I need to be

Words that kill would you speak them to me

With your breath so still it makes me believe

In the father's sins

Let me suffer now and never die I'm alive

Pride feeds their blackened hearts

And the thirst must be quenched to fuel hypocrisy

Cleansing flames is the only way to repent

Renounce what made you

Words that kill would you speak them to me

With your breath so still it makes me believe

The sins never die can't wash this blood off our hands

Let the world fear us all it's just means to an end

Our salvation lies in the father's sins

Beyond the truth let me suffer now

In my heart I just know that

There's no way to light up the dark in his eyes
