Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Pride is for the priviliged

Pride is for a few

Who can't afford a conscience clean and morals too

You can't undo what can't be undone

I can't rewind and so I run

Exception, yeah

You are my exception

Exception, yeah

Exception

You came to me with confidence

I saw the devil smile

He said "hey here's your second chance"

Redemption for life

A heart-shaped magic lucky charm

My gift to you will keep me warm

Exception, yeah

You are my exception

Exception, yeah

If I can be your angel

Flying through a desert storm

A soothing calm oasis

You will always be my one

Exception

Exception

I had an inner vision

Attacking from behind

A backstabbing illusion

No smoke without a fire

You told the truth I lived a lie

There's nothing I won't sacrifice

Exception, yeah

You are my exception

Exception, yeah

If I can be your angel

Flying through a desert storm

A soothing calm oasis

You will always be my one

Exception

You are my exception

Exception, yeah

You are my exception

Exception, yeah

Exception
