[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
A jig of misery, the ballad of the fallen
A sad sad song, untuned and lorn
Blown out by the wind
[Chorus]
For all the harm you’ve done
Now penance has begun
Betrayers, deceivers
Rats and unbеlievers
I stare into thеir eyes
Fragments before she died
Just craving for some help
Throes of atonement
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
A jig of misery, the ballad of the fallen
A sad sad song, untuned and lorn
Blown out by the wind
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
