I cheated
And I've realized
We all have demons inside
Some are good at hiding
Some are not

I cheated
And I've realized
That I actually care
When I do not
And neither the world
Nor the people living in it
Is unfair
It's just that our perspectives cross
But they never entirely overlap

I cheated
And I've realized
That my vision is foggy
I long for the past
I steal the future
But I leave the present behind
Nevertheless, one thing's for sure

I cheated
And I'm not good at it
I am ruthless when I am not

I cheated
And I am to be blamed
For getting caught
I should've played better

I cheated
And though I know
From the very start
I shouldn't have played the game
Still, I should've played better

We are all sinners.
Why, of all the sinners, the most sinful ones don't get punished?
Because they don't get caught.
Don't get caught too.
