Idol's Fall

He sent me to houses, do you entertain angels? I’m a stranger, supper prayer My mouth falls open and no sound comes out In the center of your church I stare at you on stage, We sway Every song you sing is an echo Every word you speak is idle You sit inside a building And think that makes it final You must be perfect You must be forgiven Every deed you do is selfish Every prayer you say is soulless You wrap yourself in crosses And think that makes it final You must be righteous You must be sinless I ask the sky, what’s in this? Where is your false prophet, I met God Where is your false idol When you're giving it all away To anyone who looks your way Where is your false prophet Singing you've had it hard You hold so tight to that sympathy card Every day is all the same You lie to yourself And play your games The day will come when you will fall Look in the mirror and tell me what you see Are you still the fairest of all? He never knew you. A little girl once was but is no more She turned off the light and locked her chamber door It's dark beneath the skin, they told me so. Oh, hide them before the sun sets. I'll leave the haven to meet Him after I fall asleep. With hands as cold, no half to hold I take the origin before I’d take the idol, In Babylon I rebel. Brace yourselves for a Blood Libel. Lock up your sons. Hide them! I'll leave the haven to meet him as I no longer sleep. I'll make it to Norwich alone without a family, without a home or with him in Love we grow. Mothers, hide them! I want him as myself, against my odds I still rebel. Will you teach me your miracles and all your rituals? Your muse is sacrificial Convserso, Oh, hide him! Brace yourselves for yet another Blood Libel.
