A celibacy cover-up
To remain pure within their guise
You gather at the chapels
Where your tears stream and eyes gone dry
From a figure so sly with arms wide open
A truth not told, a secret not spoken
Vicars, bastards, sin after sin
Piled up bodies in the shadow of the crucifix
Hallowed grounds, loose soil
Salted earth around its walls
Sons and daughters in an unmarked grave
Lust for the man in black, and defiance of your faith
Faint cries below your feet
The dirt shifts as the children crawl
No one dare speak that they've fucked a man of God
They'll call it immaculate conception and just throw it in the yard
Hallowed grounds, loose soil
Salted earth around its walls
Faint cries below your feet
The dirt shifts as the children crawl
In the shadow of the crucifix
