Fvneral Fvkk - Poor Sisters Of Nazareth

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

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

And to this day
The demons stay
Forevermore
Within me

There’s no relief
There’s just reprieve
The will of God
Is tribulation
