The Sinner Is You Lyrics
What's life without a little pain
the good thing is on a little break
you'll be fine and up again
the goal is to bring the human back to the world
'cause nothing will last
but bring it home as a friend
or the sinner is you
I'm the collector of the good spirits of mother earth
hell is life drying up
I see and hear more than I wish
the seal has broken up again
one life on earth fades away again
the sinner is you
There's been a kill in the spirit world
the ultimate sinner just don't know
Is there forgiveness
do we all deserve our blessing from the spirit world
Is this a sign for all of us
to take care of the life we have
please wake up and feel the love
the good thing is on a little break
you'll be fine and up again
the goal is to bring the human back to the world
'cause nothing will last
but bring it home as a friend
or the sinner is you
hell is life drying up
I see and hear more than I wish
the seal has broken up again
one life on earth fades away again
the sinner is you
the ultimate sinner just don't know
do we all deserve our blessing from the spirit world
to take care of the life we have
please wake up and feel the love

It's a bit out there, but Michael Poulsen best explained the song, stating that, "Sometimes we don’t understand why people die around us – it doesn’t make sense. I’m singing about a spiritual world, where there is some kind of reaper who punishes people for not treating themselves and the people around them well by taking a random soul. We’re left here, not knowing why that person has died. The reaper is saying, ‘I’ll take a random soul, and you are the sinner without knowing."
The title "The sinner is you" adds to the idea that each person is responsible for their own actions and the impact they have on the world surrounding them.
