mortal thrall - twelve long years lyrics

Loading...

now back in seville
taken in by another confessor
the most sinister of all
he would be her complete undoing

“blessed dolores” they called her
her visions and “powers” made known
shown off like some trophy
her passion exploited

he frequently beat her
excusing it as penance
for twelve long years
she’s bound to this man

the pain she endures
she’s convinced she deserves
bruised and continually broken
a victim of her station

how did we award
such overwhelming power
to one gender over another
based on stories and lies

the untold abuses
the shame of it all
the protection awarded
to the most depraved among us
the priest denounces her
claims she’s in league with the devil
arrested for heresy
an innocent woman scorned
