 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

                       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
