Tarot strewn across the floor   Fate creeps under the creaking door   Say farewell to the salad days   Arms held out for the needle haze      Scars, scars start to show   But don't, don't despair   For the shame I know      Bible for the love and damned   Religion for the pagan man   Faith and prayer for the chosen few   Mystic shades of violent hue      Blood, blood on my cheeks   And the taste   The taste of ash curls   Across my tongue      Sacrilege, burning   On the funeral pyre   Sacrilege, toss and turn   On the cross to burn      Rape and pillage, the sacred word   Heart of darkness, crowned and stirred   Rite of passage, reckless whirl   Fruit forbidden, ritual swirl      And you, what can you do?   And I, I say there's nothing   You can do to stop this      Sacrilege, burning   On the funeral pyre   Sacrilege, toss and turn   On the cross to burn      Tarot strewn across the floor   Fate creeps under the creaking door   Say farewell to the salad days   Arms held out for the needle haze      Scars, scars start to show   But don't, don't despair   For the shame I know      Sacrilege, burning   On the funeral pyre   Sacrilege, toss and turn   On the cross to burn
