Church of Abuse

from Stupidity Returns by Brat Pack

/

lyrics

You want to spend your life serving God
Willing to make a sacrifice
Abstinence is part of a priest's morality
Forever obliged to suppress, suppress, suppress your sexuality
Celibacy can be hard, we do understand
So if you cannot keep your promise, then...

We will forever conceal the truth
Within this holy church of abuse
Silence is golden, it's our salvation
A covenant of obfuscation

Turned out to be harder than expected
You begin to understand why you yourself were subjected
To sexual abuse as a seminarian
Repeat the vicious cycle, again and again and again, you have become the same as them
Baptized in sadism, oppression and sodomy
Untold horror tales of the ministry

We asked for forgiveness from the holy spirit
Our sins have been cleansed, no apologies given
The Lord has blessed us with redemption
Our missteps will never, never, never again have to be mentioned
A tradition of secrecy, Vatican justice
Discarding dark stories into the abyss

Spreading the gospel of molestation
