One For Me

One for the lover and one for the lost.
Oh the price of sin.
One for the sinner and one for the love
I'm in.

One for tomarrow and one for the life I've led.
One for the sorrow and one for the love in my bed.

And one for me,
And one for me,
And one for me.

One for the giver and one for the take.
And the guilty head.
One for the woman and one for the snake
Who is dead.

One for the mother and one for the child
To begin again.
One for the meek and one for the mild
Who give in.

And one for me.
And one for me,
And one for me.

Three steps forward,
Two steps back
For one more I keep on.

One for the liar and one for the trust.
Ignorant bliss.
One for the metal and one for the rust
To resist.

And one for me,
And one for me,
And one for me.
