  • I remember vividly what that vision did to me
    You laying with her in our bed
    Love can be a tragedy
    When you do what you did to me
    All I'm seeing now is red

    I need to repent
    A sin for a sin

    Bible told me to forgive
    All those who trespass against
    Tread their feet on sacred ground

    Bad things come with consequence
    What feels good, hurts in the end
    Don't want to think about that now

    I need to repent
    A sin for a sin

    Fire and brimstone
    Dirt and a headstone
    Burn them, baby
    All of our sins
    Hear the thunder
    Six feet under
    Hit your knees
    Wont do it again

    Guilty pleasure
    Ease the pain
    Whiskey runnin' through my veins
    Too late to save you now

    I need to repent
    A sin for a sin

    Fire and brimstone
    Dirt and a headstone
    Bury them deep
    Along with your sins
    Hear the thunder
    Six feet under
    Hit your knees
    Wont do it again

    I remember vividly
    What that vision did to me Writer/s: BLAKE SHELTON, MIRANDA LAMBERT
