lyrics

Time after time reality raids my mine
they can say what they want about
you talk about my crimes with a pen in hand judging every step I take
There ain't no use in all your lying
It's the abuse I can't take

Time after time, reality raids my mind
Let them say what they want about me

Look me in the eye
Tell me what you see
Is it just me or my past history
Don't look back at me
I'm not what I seem
Don't look back at me

I hold back my thoughts my final epilogue
Mother Cabrini please
Please forgive my sins
Let the moon shine low for Madame D' Pompadour
She's no saint in your eyes
Lady love of her time
Oh, there you go through the door your looking for
Let your mind escape, for just one single day

I ain't no Saint, I never said i was

Look me in the eye
tell me what you see
Is it just me or my past history
Don't look back at me
