Lyrics
News got to our side of town today It made your folks come asking for you They probably thought that you had ran away Now I only wish it was true Them priests cannot get their damn bells to ring They've been at now for years up in their church And they have set a prize for those un-chiming things Seven hundred solid years of curse And all I can do is watch, While they initiatet the end of time And the screams I hear from nowhere they're not yours, They're mine Townsmen and women gatherered up a flock To ask the priests about all this stuff "We built you a church out of our blood and rocks Tell us when we've suffered anough" Well, the priests short of answer went into retreat And came down with a vision on what to do "If we can throw a virgin into the melted iron heat We will surely lift our town out of its doom" No one knows about your secret, dark and deep And I made a promise not to tell As you sobbed your confession'till you fell asleep, on my lap I could see heaven, but not hell But I think I would have made a good father And a carrier of deep secrets too All the while I know that it is harder, to know something And never get it through And now you are on your way to freedom And no one will ever see you cry Everyone will know you as "the Virgin" All you have to do is die And I don't know what we are achieving Soon everyone is back on theire old grind I just know whenever someone's leaving There is always someone left behind
