Sacrilege Lyrics

Sacrilege lyrics

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

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



Sacrilege, burning on the
funeral pyre

Sacrilege, toss and turn on the cross to burn
