Tarot strewn across the floor
|
fate creeps under the creaking door
|
say farewell to the salad days
|
arms held out for the needle haze
|
scars, scars start to show
|
but don't, don't despair for the shame I know
|
|
Bible for the love and damned
|
religion for the pagan man
|
faith and prayer for the chosen few
|
mystic shades of violent hue
|
blood, blood on my cheeks
|
and the taste
|
the taste of ash curls across my tongue
|
|
Sacrilege, burning on the funeral pyre
|
Sacrilege, toss and turn on the cross to burn
|
|
Rape and pillage the sacred word
|
heart of darkness crowned and stirred
|
rite of passage reckless whirl
|
fruit forbidden ritual swirl
|
And you, what can you do?
|
And I, I say there's nothing you can do to stop this
|
|
Sacrilege, burning on the funeral pyre
|
Sacrilege, toss and turn on the cross to burn
|
|
Tarot strewn across the floor

Sacrilege, burning on the funeral pyre

Sacrilege, toss and turn on the cross to burn.
