Song Title: My Confessionary Hymn
Artist: Joshua James
Album: B-Sides It's Dark Outside


I ain't no super boy,
I ain't no yankee son.
I ain't what you've been lookin' for,
I ain't your chosen one.

I got no one to throw this at,
For to blame myself.
For comin' home with my flask in hand,
My mouth full of fiery hell.

This is my confessionary hymn.

I cannot save you, my wretched soul,
You got this thing all wrong.
Lying here upon my jail cell bed,
Has got me etching down this song.

How could a man such as I,
Kill a man like him,
Without a second thought of mind?

I love my wife, well, too damn much,
to see her with a man of his kind.

This is my confessionary hymn.

La da da da, la da da da, la da da da
La da da da, la da da da, la da da da

Well I ain't no, no super boy,
No, I ain't your yankee son.
I ain't what you've been looking for,
I ain't your chosen one.

Well my day is close,
It's my fault I suppose.
I got that man's blood on my hands.

So light your fires, my dear,
Prison guards.
This is a day all my pain will end.

This is my confessionary hymn.

La da da da, la da da da, la da da da
La da da da, la da da da, la da da da

Don't you cry, my angel, [it] had to be,
The sinner's blood.
Please move on and forget my face,
Forget my love.

Please lay me down in my, my mother's,
For this sin.
And when you pass there, upon my grave,
Don't forget my confessionary hymn.

La da da da, la da da da, la da da da
La da da da, la da da da, la da da da
