Tie Her To The Cross

Look at that hair
Look at that dress
Look into the eyes of the obsessed
Cruel is the game you wanna play
She will never get away
Seventeen years today

Look at the sky
Look for the sign
Look at you falling out of line
Crumble the earth
Under your feet
In the wilderness of sin
You’ve got the beast within

Up in the campanile a raven sings her wistful lullaby
Unexpected deeds will come now spread your wings and fly

Molly black turns seventeen – she leaves her home alone at night
Did she see the shadows by the church
Tie her to the cross and leave her with her God
Leave her for her father to find her

Pale as her face
Black as the cross
White is the evil inside us
Deep as your grave
Dig it in shame
Yeah can you recall her name

Look at that hair
Look at that dress
Another sin you must confess
When you walk in the wilderness of sin
And you’ve got the beast within
