Beyond the Convent Walls Lyrics


Forgive my thoughts of these impure desires

For they are the work of the beast

Under God’s watch I have played with the fire

The force of the serpent unleashed

Formless and voiceless, yet still in command

Twisting the faith of the meek

Losing myself in the realm of the damned

Fearing The pleasures I seek

Sever the flesh with shards of the devil’s disease

Wallow in shame, succumb to heresy

This mouth that once sang his praise now spews cryptic filth

Satan has tightened his grip!

Bewitched, obsessed, possessed

Beyond the convent walls!

Seduced, oppressed, unblessed

Among these sacred halls!

Bewitched, obsessed, possessed

Beyond the convent walls!

Seduced, oppressed, unblessed

Among these sacred halls!

Shed sacred flesh for these forces unknown

As into the threshold I creep

Beguilt and berate me for sins unatoned

The scars of impiety weep

Lambs of hypocrisy follow the lies

Blasphemous I have become

Off I descend into the womb of the night

Heading into the unknown

Sever the flesh with shards of the devil’s disease

Wallow in shame, succumb to heresy

This mouth that once sang his praise now spews cryptic filth

Satan has tightened his grip!

Bewitched, obsessed, possessed

Beyond the convent walls!

Seduced, oppressed, unblessed

Among these sacred halls!

Bewitched, obsessed, possessed

Beyond the convent walls!

Seduced, oppressed, unblessed

Among these sacred halls!

Lechery within the house of God

Atop the altar - devil’s seed

Greet the predatory afterglow

As the congregation bleed

Fornicator! Sacrilegious bitch!

With the serpent in her eyes

The perversion of the crucifix

Christ denied!

Bewitched, obsessed, possessed

Beyond the convent walls!

Seduced, oppressed, unblessed

Among these sacred halls!
