Song about priest sex abuse scandals against children that have come to light.
Lucifer Fall
Words and Music by Peter Merz
You will never be a saint to me
Oh, what did those prayers
What did they even mean
Now the curtains torn
You aint my hero that's for sure
The truth that fell to the ground
Its back, it aint messin around
Cause the truth is coming out
Father, you have sinned
The shadows have no doubts
Way too late for amends
Chorus:
Its a Lucifer Fall
When Justice is blind
Oh, she wont be fooled
Can't hide your crimes
The writings on the wall
Youll reap what you sowed
In the public eye
When they slit your hope
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Your refuge of lies is a hangmans rope
Your hands and tongue are tied
Oh, what will you do
What will you do
When Judgment Day comes for you
Its time for the ugly truth
'Bout your confessional-snog-booth
Whipserin walls shout out loud
Oh, look what youve done
Once the muffled truth cries out
Just look at what youve become
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
INSTRUMENTAL
Bridge:
Truth butts in where it hurts
And this time it will be heard
Your secrets wont ever hide
The innocence you stole
Truth butts in where it hurts
And this time it will be seen
When you walk in with dirty sheets
Theres nowhere for you to go
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
