The Preacher Is Blind
Desolate field of graves
A steeple pierces the sky
Forbidding laws left unquestioned
And no breathing man knows why
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
Standing in the doorway
Shrouded in the black
A figure holds a candle
And the fire bleeds a crack
Of light that's shed upon her face
I pray - gold light retract
For I stand and stare: horrified
As two empty holes stare back
She tilts her head, opens her mouth
And then she starts to sing
A hoarse demonic sermon
"I will teach you everything"
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
(Forgive her father for she has sinned)
Forgive her father for she has sinned
Forgive her father for she has sinned
I've tried to open up her eyes
But the preacher is blind
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
A steeple pierces the sky
Forbidding laws left unquestioned
And no breathing man knows why
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
Standing in the doorway
Shrouded in the black
A figure holds a candle
And the fire bleeds a crack
Of light that's shed upon her face
I pray - gold light retract
For I stand and stare: horrified
As two empty holes stare back
She tilts her head, opens her mouth
And then she starts to sing
A hoarse demonic sermon
"I will teach you everything"
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
(Forgive her father for she has sinned)
Forgive her father for she has sinned
Forgive her father for she has sinned
I've tried to open up her eyes
But the preacher is blind
It's her faith in the divine
She hides behind
She's afraid to realise
Her truths are lies
I've tried to open her eyes
But the preacher is blind
