Touched By An Angel - Cephalic Carnage

The church is all powerful, they influence the entire world

Amass great wealth, the pope is like the president

The bible is a book of rules, explaining how to live

The trails of those before, beliefs for you explore

Priests read scripts of faith, take a vow of celibacy

To be pure and of god, not to bring pain on man

For centuries imposing their will, molesting the youth of the world

Exempt from the law, papal supreme, scarring their minds

Cure you of sin, destroy you from within, tormenting thy dreams

Touched by an angel, blessed by the hand of god

Victims of clerical abuse, live in fear

They cant escape

The rage inside, it just burns in their minds

Pontiffs disregard the allegations, settlements are paid

He’s sent to a new congregation, to spread his morbid plague

The cycle is repeated silence is their way, of dealing with it Another kid gets touched, pedophile is made

For centuries imposing their will, molesting the youth of the world

Exempt from the law, papal supreme, scarring their minds

Cure you of sin, destroy you from within, tormenting thy dreams

Touched by an angel, blessed by the hand of god

A priest should be allowed to marry a bride

Procreate with her, and to bare the gift of life

Instead they swore the oath, to recite holy words

For his mass, not to cast shame upon his loyal flock

Someday this will be the downfall of the church

When faith has died, who will you preach to now?
