Midnight train howlin’ down a broken track
Whiskey on my breath and a devil on my back
Streetlight flickers like a dying prayer
I sold my soul in a smoky backroom dare
Dust on my boots, fire in my veins
Got a heart full of thunder and a head full of rain
Mama said, “Son, don’t you walk that line”
But I crossed it once and I crossed it nine
(Pre-Chorus)
Now the mirror don’t know my name
Every scar’s just a brand of shame
(Chorus)
I’m bathed in blood and sin
Washed in the flood I’m drowning in
Saints can’t save this skin I’m in
I was born to lose, I was built to win
But I’m bathed in blood and sin
(Verse 2)
Black leather Bible and a .45
Preacher man swore I’d never survive
Choir sang low while the sirens cried
Another lost soul on the wrong side
Neon angels with broken wings
Trading halos for diamond rings
Kiss so sweet but it burns like gin
Love don’t wash what I’m drowning in
(Pre-Chorus)
Every promise I ever made
Turned to smoke in the mess I’ve made
(Chorus)
I’m bathed in blood and sin
Washed in the flood I’m drowning in
Heaven’s door won’t let me in
I dance with ghosts where the wolves have been
Yeah, I’m bathed in blood and sin
(Bridge – Slow, Gritty)
Guitar cryin’ like a sinner’s plea
Bend them strings till they set me free
If redemption’s just a state of mind
Pour me another, leave it behind
(Guitar Solo)
(Breakdown – Half-Time)
Chains rattle when I walk alone
Every mile just another stone
If there’s mercy in the wind tonight
It’s lost in the howlin’ of a midnight fight
(Final Chorus – Big, Raw)
I’m bathed in blood and sin
Washed in the flood I’m drowning in
No white light gonna pull me in
I ride this storm till the bitter end
Yeah, I’m bathed in blood and sin
(Outro)
Midnight train still rollin’ on
Long after the last light’s gone
If you see me where the bad boys grin
Just know I’m bathed in blood and sin…
Bathed in blood and sin.
