[Verse] The clouds roll dark over the town tonight Whispers of guilt in the pale moonlight The clock is ticking for the wicked games they play Mercy fades fast as the dawning day [Verse 2] Shadows crawl in every empty prayer A thousand secrets spinning in the air They're deaf to the warning but they’ll hear the toll Every step away chips at the soul [Chorus] The sinners will pay and fall so deep No ladder high enough where demons creep Repent your ways or feel the flame You can’t outrun the weight of blame [Verse 3] The preacher cries but they turn away Blind to the signs Deaf to what they say But nobody’s safe when the thunder calls That's the moment when justice befalls [Bridge] Their golden towers won't shield the strikes No coin can buy the second light You can plead and beg but the truth won’t bend The road of pride meets a burning end [Chorus] The sinners will pay and fall so deep No ladder high enough where demons creep Repent your ways or feel the flame You can’t outrun the weight of blame
