Xavier Lyrics - Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun - Dead Can Dance

Fair Roseanna, 

your vagrancy's a familiar tale 

fraught with danger, 

the lives you led were judged for fame 

hatred enfolds us, 

inculpates the minds with it's heresy 

laymen enfold us, 

clemency arrives to set you free! 

Fate... 

Although Xavier has prayed 

that life-giving waters may rain 

down on the souls of men 

to cure them of their pain.

These were the sins of Xavier's past 

hung like jewels in the forest of veils. 

Deep in the heart where the mysteries emerge 

Eve bears the stigma of original sin 

freedom so high when we all are bound by laws 

etched in the scheme of nature's own hand 

unseen by those who fail in their pursuit of fate. 

Although Xavier has prayed 

that life-giving waters may rain 

down on the souls of men 

to cure them of their ways 

Photos 

And as the night turns into day 

oh the sun, the moon, wish away 

although your nightmares come home to stay 

Xavier's love lies in chains 

These were the sins of Xavier's past 

hung like jewels in the forest of veils
