Death Becomes Her

In the year of 1883 a bringer of death is born
Becomes devoted abbess of the Matthewites
When the Kingdom of Greece is schismatic

Mother Superior 
Stealing their lives away 
Death becomes her 
As she becomes Death

She takes control with an iron fist
With forceful confessions of sins
Normalize the beatings, all the nuns take part 
Punishing to prove their commitment 

Mother Superior 
Stealing their lives away 
Death becomes her 
As she becomes Death

Isolation cells, you must pay 
Property and wealth to the abbey 
Deprivation of sleep, you must pray 
The path to salvation is through suffering

The sun goes down, the moon takes its place
Singing birds turn into screeching bats
Three days have passed without food or water 
So sick, so weak and so afraid

Mother Superior 
Stealing their lives away 
Death becomes her 
As she becomes Death

Mother Superior
Death becomes her

The Convent of the Virgin in the Pines
A free-of-charge Tuberculosis sanctum
Where the sick become the dead 
Beware the nuns that kill 
In the sect of Misery
The reaper is always near

Mother Superior 
Stealing their lives away 
Death becomes her 
As she becomes Death

Mother Superior 
Stealing their lives away 
Death becomes her 
As she becomes Death
