Fair Roseanna your vagrancy's a familiar tale

Fraught with danger the lives you led were judged profane





Hatred enfolds us

Inculcates the minds with it's heresy


Laymen enfold us


Clemency arrives to set you free




Faith


Although Xavier has prayed

That life-giving waters may rain


Down on the souls of man


To cure them of their ways




These were the sins of Xavier's past


Hung like jewels in the forest of veils

Deep in the heart where the mysteries emerge


Eve bears the stigma of original sin




Freedom so hard when we are all bound by laws


Etched in the seam of nature's own hand


Unseen by all those who fail in their pursuit of faith




Although Xavier has prayed


That life-giving waters may rain

Down on the souls of man


To cure them of their ways




And as the night turns into day


Will the sun illuminate your way


Or will the nightmares come home to stay

Xavier's love lies in chains





These were the sins of Xavier's past

Hung like jewels in the forest of veils
