Sinner's Glory

(The Starlings)

written by Joy Mills
Wild dreams in the dead of night
Wild hearts at the break of day
And it breaks my heart to find
That you have gone astray

In the land of the father’s wars
In the land of the children’s stories
You have to find your way
In the land of the sinner’s glory

Like they say in the history books
Like they say in the midnight taverns
We’re afraid it’s always been
We’re afraid it always will be

In the land of the father’s wars
In the land of the children’s stories
You have to find your way
In the land of the sinner’s glory

Would that it were untrue
Would that it did not seem
That it’s an endless quest
Inside a fallen dream

Would that were untrue
Would that it did not seem
That it’s a fallen quest
Inside an endless dream

In the land…
