๐ Lyrics
Within the halls of the monastery
I walk the corridors in silence
A vow of abstinence and piety I made
To attain peace and holy guidance
All earthly pleasures I've forsworn
But when I'm desperate and forlorn
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss
My gut it hurts whenever I am
Alone with the cross
His wooden symbol bringing warmth and light
To where the sun is never shining
Makes me tremble with unholy ecstasy
Oh God, thy mercy I confide in
For this I can never atone
Heavenly father please condone
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss
My gut it hurts whenever I am
Alone with the cross
Defiled and broken, His image in my hands
Damned is my godforsaken soul
My oath no longer worth a toss
I weep in shame and bitter loss
Alone with my cross
I walk the corridors in silence
A vow of abstinence and piety I made
To attain peace and holy guidance
All earthly pleasures I've forsworn
But when I'm desperate and forlorn
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss
My gut it hurts whenever I am
Alone with the cross
His wooden symbol bringing warmth and light
To where the sun is never shining
Makes me tremble with unholy ecstasy
Oh God, thy mercy I confide in
For this I can never atone
Heavenly father please condone
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss
My gut it hurts whenever I am
Alone with the cross
Defiled and broken, His image in my hands
Damned is my godforsaken soul
My oath no longer worth a toss
I weep in shame and bitter loss
Alone with my cross
