Blessed be thy shame

It's the source of the pain

It's the scab that covers your soul

Blessed be the name

Of the saint with the stain

Your chapel is coming down

Without the blessing of shame

You are confessing in vain

Sacred is the crave

Of the one who is saved

And the one who deserts you

Mortal is the slave

He's the one that prays

He's the one that follows you down

Without the blessing of shame

You are confessing in vain

Blessed be the heart

That was black from the start

And fell before Genesis

Blessed be thy shame

It's the source of the pain

It's the scab that covers your soul

Blessed be the name

Of the saint with the stain

Your chapel is coming down

Without the blessing of shame

You are confessing in vain

Blessed be thy shame

God bless the shame
