Cher - Sisters of Mercy lyrics

Sisters of Mercy your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place

There's a baby crying softly
In a dark and dangerous place
She's imprisoned by no language
Fear grips her tiny face in gods house she
Held a hostage by a cruel and
Heartless mob there's some rule they
Think god's written
And it justifies their job sisters of mercy
Daughters of hell they always weave
Their web of lies and wrap you in their
Wicked spell sisters of mercy
Masters of pain they try to crucify your
Innocence and do it in gods name

There's a baby sobbing softly
In a crib that's now a cage
She's done nothing to deserve this
But it sanctifies their rage

They use god like he's a weapon
Only for a chosen few then hide behind pious
Faces like the guilty always do
Sisters of mercy mothers of shame
A baby only gets to
Heaven is she's baptized in his name
Sisters of Mercy daughter of war
These chicks administer your penance
While the devil guards their door

Your faith is not faithful your grace has no
Grace your mercy shows no
Mercy is there no way out of
This place

There's a baby who's a warrior
Sometimes tears run down her face

As she wonders should she fight
Or simply disappear from the race
If she's only one lesson
It's pride comes before a fall
The karma train wait's for no man
But god wait's for us all sisters of mercy
Twisters of truth i cannot condemn you or
Forgiver you for your sins done in gods
Youth

Sisters of mercy daughters of Cain
I see your wilted powers fading
Left like rags out in the rain

Sisters of mercy mothers of hell
Your mercy has no mercy
Is there no way out of this place
Your grace shows no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place
Is there no way out of this place
