Shadows cut across as stolen promises were broke   We wound our watch to stretch the time   In case that no-one got the joke   I never wanted to begin   Name that sin   Name that sin      Dim and distant kisses chill before I catch my death   Etch every name upon the door   And note the ones who never rest   We never knew who'd be within   Name that sin   Name that sin      Shattered captains climbing gates to hold new lamps of fame   For mad kings rowing over lakes   Connecting rooms in black sedans   They never wanted to begin   Name that sin   Name that sin      Evidence is stripped and torn and hidden in the minds   The negatives have all been fogged and blurred   Reduced a thousand times   We never wanted to fall in   Name that sin   Name that sin
