Some Weird Sin Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I never got my license to live
They won't give it up
So I stand at the world's edge

[Hook 1]
I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
And the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want some weird sin

[Bridge]
When things get too straight
I can't bear it
I feel stuck, stuck on a pin

[Hook 2]
I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
And the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want some weird sin
That's when I want some weird sin
Just to relax with
[Verse 3]
Yeah, some dumb, weird sin
For a while anyway
With my head on the ledge
That's what you get out on the edge
Some weird sin

[Bridge]
When things get too straight
I can't bear it
I feel stuck, stuck on a pin

[Hook 2]
I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
And the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want some weird sin
That's when I want some weird sin
Just to relax with

[Verse 3]
Yeah, some dumb, weird sin
For a while anyway
With my head on the ledge
That's what you get out on the edge
Some weird sin
[Outro]
Some weird sin
Some weird sin

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
