Fair Roseanna your vagrancy's a familiar tale |
|
Fraught with danger the lives you led were judged profane |
|
Hatred enfolds us |
|
Inculcates the minds with it's heresy |
|
Laymen enfold us |
|
Clemency arrives to set you free |
|
FaithAlthough |
|
Xavier has prayed |
|
That life-giving waters may rain |
|
Down on the souls of man |
|
To cure them of their ways |
|
These were the sins of |
|
Xavier's past |
|
Hung like jewels in the forest of veils |
|
Deep in the heart where the mysteries emerge |
|
Eve bears the stigma of original sin |
|
Freedom so hard when we are all bound by laws |
|
Etched in the seam of nature's own hand |
|
Unseen by all those who fail in their pursuit of faith |
|
Although Xavier has prayed |
|
That life-giving waters may rain |
|
Down on the souls of man |
|
To cure them of their ways |
|
And as the night turns into day |
|
Will the sun illuminate your way |
|
Or will the nightmares come home to stay |
|
Xavier's love lies in chains |
|
These were the sins of |
|
Xavier's past |
|
Hung like jewels in the forest of veils |
