Sisters Of Mercy
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there nowhere out of this place
There's a baby cryin' softly
In a dark and dangerous place
She's imprisoned by no language
Fear grips her tiny face
In God's house she's held a hostage
By a cruel and heartless mob
There's some rules they think God's written
And it justifies their job
Sisters of mercy, daughters of hell
They always weave their web of lies
And wrap you in their wicked spell
Sisters of mercy, masters of pain
They try to crucify your innocence
And do it in God's name
There's a baby sobbing softly
In a crib that's now a cage
She's done nothing to deserve this
But it sanctifies their rage
They use God like he's a weapon
Only for a chosen few
Then hide behind pious faces
Like the guilty always do
Sisters of mercy, mothers of shame
A baby only gets to heaven
If she's baptized in his name
Sisters of mercy, daughters of war
These chicks administer your penance
While the devil guards their door
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there nowhere out of this place
