[Intro]
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place?

[Verse 1]
There's a baby cryin' softly
In a dark and dangerous place
She's imprisoned by no language
Fear grips her tiny face
In God's house, she's held a hostage
By a cruel and heartless mob
There's some rules they think God's written
And it justifies their job

[Chorus]
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Daughters of hell (Daughters of hell)
They always weave their web of lies
And wrap you in their wicked spell
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Masters of pain (Masters of pain)
They try to crucify your innocence
And do it in God's name
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Mothers of shame (Mothers of shame)
A baby only gets to heaven
If she's baptized in his name
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Daughters of war (Daughters of war)
These chicks administer your penance
While the devil guards their door

[Bridge]
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place?
[Verse 3]
There's a baby who's a warrior
Sometimes tears run down her face
As she wonders should she follow
Or simply vanish from the race?
If she's only learned one lesson
It's, "Pride comes before a fall"
The karma train waits for no man
But God waits for us all

[Chorus]
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Twisters of truth (Twisters of truth)
I cannot condemn you or forgive you
For your sins done in my youth
Sisters of mercy (Sisters of mercy)
Daughters of Cain (Daughters of Cain)
I see that wilted, fading power's runnin' flowers
Left like rags out in the rain

[Outro]
Sisters of mercy (Your faith is not faithful)
Mothers of hell (Your grace has no grace)
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place?
Is there no way out of this place?
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place?
Is there no way out of this place?
Your faith is not faithful
Your grace has no grace
Your mercy shows no mercy
Is there no way out of this place?
Is there no way out of this place?
Your grace has no grace
