Behind Her Chapel Veil



Little girl tainted by sin   

Be sure to say your sorry  

Kneel at the altar rail    

Say your “Hail Mary’s” always   


Don’t forget your “Glory Be’s”   

Look away from the hypocrisy   

Stuff the truth way down  

Don’t listen to your heart  

Be sure to pray your rosary in the dark  


So many secrets   

So many lies   

So much confusion   

No matter how hard she tried  

There was no more hiding   

behind her chapel veil   

She had a truth to tell 

Even if it meant she’d burned in hell    


Young woman dressed in white    

Holding your hands in prayer     

Inside you there’s a growing fight   

Inside you’re very scared    


Even though you say Amen   

There will come a time when    

You will know without a doubt   

This is not what God should be about  


Repeat chorus  She had a truth to tell  2X
