Convent

             Oh, we're in a terrible mess 
                      sheets on the floor it's anybody's guess        
                                    pillows full of cats and windows full of rain
I'm gonna head out 
I have to head out
take my girl in the rain
out to the convent

somebody called up a demiurge
broken like a star singing a dirge
as sad a fact as anything here
the rain is still falling

the sisters of mercy don't have anymore
they locked up the joint
swept the floor
started their mystery games

no one deserves to live
in a prison because they love an idea
it's so full of terror
it's so full of waste
let them out
let them run the place
just let them run the place
