Poor Sisters of Nazareth Lyrics
The choking fears
The children's tears
The sisters‘ lap
The congregation
Plain cruelty
And agony
Behind the mask
Of veneration
A mother's love
Promised the coif
A place to live
For lonely children
But in the night
They suffer blight
The vile touch
Of the truncheon
And when the storm begins
Above the convent spire
There is no God in here
Here's but infernal fire
The walls are closing in
On youthful lives so dire
The children's tears
The sisters‘ lap
The congregation
Plain cruelty
And agony
Behind the mask
Of veneration
A mother's love
Promised the coif
A place to live
For lonely children
But in the night
They suffer blight
The vile touch
Of the truncheon
And when the storm begins
Above the convent spire
There is no God in here
Here's but infernal fire
The walls are closing in
On youthful lives so dire
A day at sea
Serenity
As something was lost
Among the waves
Her tiny arms
They struggled hard
Against the drift
To no avail
Come heavy rain
Wash off the pain
Wash off the stains
And memories
Dare not to sleep
Dare not to weep
Dare not to speak
Keep silence
And so they reign
By dread and pain
In lightless days
Unending
For you are dirt
You shall be hurt
Your soul is cleansed
By being broken
Serenity
As something was lost
Among the waves
Her tiny arms
They struggled hard
Against the drift
To no avail
Come heavy rain
Wash off the pain
Wash off the stains
And memories
Dare not to sleep
Dare not to weep
Dare not to speak
Keep silence
And so they reign
By dread and pain
In lightless days
Unending
For you are dirt
You shall be hurt
Your soul is cleansed
By being broken
And to this day
The demons stay
Forevermore
Within me
There's no relief
There's just reprieve
The will of God
Is tribulation
The demons stay
Forevermore
Within me
There's no relief
There's just reprieve
The will of God
Is tribulation
