On the riverbank, she stood there motionless
And looked at her, malicious devilish
The queen of gloat, her beauty she won't mourn
Dissident, she stood there sacrosanct
A spouse of Christ, saint untouchable
And she despised the brightness of her mind

A jig of misery, the ballad of the fallen
A sad sad song, untuned and lorn
Blown out by the wind

For all the harm you've done
Now penance has begun
Betrayers, deceivers
Rats and unbelievers
I stare into their eyes
Fragments before she died
Just craving for some help
Throes of atonement

A rivalry, adolescent jealousy
Burning deep, reducing in cinder and flames
The beliefs of a childhood's tale
An unclean creature, Chimera of the Old One
Preacher, impure and servant of heathenry
She deserves her destiny, oh

A jig of misery, the ballad of the fallen
A sad sad song, untuned and lorn
Blown out by the wind

For all the harm you've done
Now penance has begun
Betrayers, deceivers
Rats and unbelievers
I stare into their eyes
Fragments before she died
Just craving for some help
Throes of atonement

For all the harm you've done
Now penance has begun
Betrayers, deceivers
Rats and unbelievers
I stare into their eyes (Into their eyes)
Fragments before she died (Before she died)
Just craving for some help
Throes of atonement
