Sin Eater by Tim Cameron Lyrics

I gave up all I had, now I am alone
And I die when something dumb reminds me of home
But if all I have is love and lantern light
At least I know
I need not fear the night

It broke my heart that evening I said goodbye
And I saw no understanding brighten her eyes
Crying why, love, why, when everything's so right?
I do it so
You need not fear the night

Please kick at me and spit on me
And cast me out alone
I have eaten up the sins of the world
So you might be absolved

I am walking, walking: desert, barrow and hill
But it's not so far till I'll forever be still
I will take with me that shame we hold so tight
Just so, my dear
We need not fear the night
