Exception – English Lyrics
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
