Xavier Lyrics

Xavier lyrics

Fair Roseanna,
                        your vagrancy's a familiar tale
                             fraught with danger,
                    the lives you led were judged for fame
                              hatred enfolds us,
                     inculpates the minds with it's heresy
                              laymen enfold us,
                       clemency arrives to set you free!

                                    Fate...
                          Although Xavier has prayed
                       that life-giving waters may rain
                           down on the souls of men
                          to cure them of their pain.

                     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 high when we all are bound by laws
                   etched in the scheme of nature's own hand
              unseen by those who fail in their pursuit of fate.

                          Although Xavier has prayed
                       that life-giving waters may rain
                           down on the souls of men
                          to cure them of their ways

                       And as the night turns into day
                        oh the sun, the moon, wish away
                  although your 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
