Loving The Alien - Visage

Watching them come and go

The Templars and the Saracens

They’re travelling in the holy land

Opening telegrams, whoa

Torture comes and torture goes

Knights who’d give you anything

They bear the cross of Coeur de Leon

Salvation for the mirror blind, whoa

But if you pray, all your sins are hooked upon the sky

Pray and the heathen’s lie will disappear

Prayers they hide the saddest view

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien

And your prayers they break the skies in two

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien

Thinking of a different time

Palestine a modern problem

Bounty and your wealth in land

Terror in a best laid plan, whoa

Watching them come and go

Tomorrows and the yesterdays

Christians and the unbelievers

Hanging by the cross and nail

But if you pray, all your sins are hooked upon the sky

Pray and the heathen’s lie will disappear

Prayers they hide the saddest view

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien

And your prayers they break the skies in two

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien

You pray till the break of dawn

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien

And you’ll believe you’re loving the alien

Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
