Virgins Fall Lyrics

God and goddess on a silver screen
Archetype lovers in a perfect dream
We lov'em, we leave'em forever clean
Then a dirty little secret spoils everything

Let the virgin fall (4x)

Saint at the altar on a tv set
He's walkin' on water and he don't get wet
The idolaters say that he's the holiest yet
He calls his mistress "venus"
Says she's teacher's perfect pet, gotta let...

Let the virgin fall (4x)

He was the leader of the people
In the land of the free
A myth we keop deep frozen in a tragedy
But now we know he never was
Much of a deity
And believing in him is
Harder than it used to be
She tried hard to hold on
Be his sweet expectation
Then she became herself
It killed the whole relation

Let the virgin fall (4x)

Father's dark desires
And mothers drastic lies
The kids don't really talk to them
Or look them in the eyes
Behind the graven images
In the back of their disguise
They are the fallen architects
Of a failing enterprise

Let the virgin fall (4x)
