There is none righteous, no not even one
No one who understands, who seeks the face of God
I’ve given in to dark depravity
Become everything I never wanted, never wanted to be
So how come the sweetest taste is stolen water?
And how come my lips crave forbidden fruit?
My pride came before the fall, I’m tempted and oh so flawed
Drinking stolen water, I’m Adam and Eve’s daughter
There is none more beautiful, more beautiful than You
and then I went and ruined it all with a “grass is greener” view
I’d given in to snake skin colored lies
I lost it all to his temptation, his voracious eyes
So how come the sweetest taste is stolen water?
And how come my lips crave forbidden fruit?
My pride came before the fall, I’m tempted and oh so flawed
Drinking stolen water, I’m Adam and Eve’s daughter
It’s poison in my veins, my nakedness, my shame
My lust for wild things has driven you away, my price to pay
So how come the sweetest taste is stolen water?
And how come my lips crave forbidden fruit?
My pride came before the fall, I’m tempted and oh so flawed
Drinking stolen water, I’m Adam and Eve’s daughter
Adam and Eve’s daughter
