Lyrics

IN THE FACE OF SIN 
 
 
The face of sin is smooth, 
And it’s clean-shaven too. 
Has a voice that can soothe; 
Bring false comfort to you. 
 
The face of sin is young, 
So appealing to you. 
It houses a sweet tongue 
That never can speak true. 
 
In the face 
Of sin, 
You can trace 
Where you’ve been; 
See every 
Mistake 
That you’ve made. 
 
In the face 
Of sin 
Is a place 
Where all men 
See every 
Heartache 
On parade. 
 
You can't fly in the face of sin. 
You can try, but you cannot win. 
You can't cry in the face of sin. 
(Can't cry in the face of sin...Can't cry in the face of sin!) 
 
The face of sin can hide 
Its tangled thoughts from you. 
Comes up close to confide 
Secrets that strangle you. 
 
Remove all those sutures; 
Break from that body cast. 
You can face the future 
If you face up to your past. 
In the face 
Of sin, 
You can trace 
Where you’ve been; 
See every 
Mistake 
That you’ve made. 
 
In the face 
Of sin 
Is a place 
Where all men 
See every 
Heartache 
On parade. 
 
You can't fly in the face of sin. 
You can try, but you cannot win. 
You can't cry in the face of sin. 
(Can't cry in the face of sin...Can't cry in the face of sin!) 
 
Sin comes in all shapes and sizes - 
A face for any occasion. 
Sin can be full of surprises - and disguises - 
Master of moral persuasion. 
 
Face the music when it begins – 
Starts the moment you let sin in. 
Dance to the music played so loud - just another face in the crowd. 
Ah! This game you cannot win! 
(Dance to the music...dance to the music!) 
 
(Face of sin...) 
 
You can't cry 
In the face of sin!
