Xavier (Remastered)

作词 : Dead Can Dance

Fair Roseanna,

your vagrancy's a familiar tale

fraught with danger,

the lives you led were judged for fame

hatred enfolds us,

inculpates the minds with it's heresy

laymen enfold us,

clemency arrives to set you free!

Fate...

Although Xavier has prayed

that life-giving waters may rain

down on the souls of men

to cure them of their pain.

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 high when we all are bound by laws

etched in the scheme of nature's own hand

unseen by those who fail in their pursuit of fate.

Although Xavier has prayed

that life-giving waters may rain

down on the souls of men

to cure them of their ways

And as the night turns into day

oh the sun, the moon, wish away

although your 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
