Sins Lyrics
Was I wrong?
Didn't have you for myself
Even if you're still abroad
We will fuck with consequence
'Cause our lives will still be ours
I wanna carry you and
Take your fallout and
See when I follow through
Yea, hold me harder and
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love
To belong
To the wind won't take us from
The fire we hold inside
Won't you rest your tired eyes
'Cause a lifetime will be hard
And when I stare at you
I feel my arms open
The tide is pulling through
To take our walls down and
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love... Yeah!
The current's strong
There's a void where we both sleep
I'll take you out of there
I'll take you anywhere for good
It won't be long
We will find a place by the beach
And days will cascade
Then days will start again for good
I turn my back on the rope tied to my ceiling
To reason I won't go there anymore
So I thought for once that death might bring me healing.
The Atlantic washed our love, In Cape Town, in London,
'Til we wash away our sins and the lives that we once lived.
Didn't have you for myself
Even if you're still abroad
We will fuck with consequence
I wanna carry you and
Take your fallout and
See when I follow through
Yea, hold me harder and
I'm living away from our love
To the wind won't take us from
The fire we hold inside
Won't you rest your tired eyes
'Cause a lifetime will be hard
I feel my arms open
The tide is pulling through
To take our walls down and
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love
I'm living away from our love... Yeah!
The current's strong
There's a void where we both sleep
I'll take you out of there
I'll take you anywhere for good
We will find a place by the beach
And days will cascade
Then days will start again for good
To reason I won't go there anymore
So I thought for once that death might bring me healing.
The Atlantic washed our love, In Cape Town, in London,

AJ Perdomo says:
"Sins is probably the first finished song for this album. I demo'd out the whole song in garageband months before we wrote and recorded the album. You can actually hear the demo on the deluxe iTunes version of the new album. We later added a bridge to it in the studio, and it turned out to be a pretty solid ballad on the album. I wrote it about my wife, and the time I spent apart from her after we got married. She's South African, yet was living in London at the time. We spent a whole year on immigration before she could finally move out here. I paint the picture of what it feels like to miss someone you love so much. The relationship really pulled me out of a dark time of my life, so there is a lot of hope in the song, yet still a dark cloak of loneliness. The cities Cape Town and London were both places I visited with my wife, hence the name drops. I wanted to show the idea of new beginnings, with imagery of water. The thought of washing away who you once were, only to begin again."
