In the chapel on the far side of town
There is a man who wears a frown
Looking as if his life has ended
It's his lord he has offended

He's a missionary but he sure ain't a saint
Nothing but a sinner
Nothing but a sinner
Yes he's a missionary, but he ain't no saint
Nothing but a sinner
Cause he finds himself in her

And in this chapel there's a nun as well
A daughter of God who will burn in hell
She says her prayers, all in vain
As his form is all that's on her brain

She's a nun that he won't save
She dug herself a shallow grave
She's a nun that he won't save
She dug herself a shallow grave
By accepting the things he gave

DESECRATION IN THE CHAPEL
LIKE EVE AND HER APPLE
NOTHING HOLY LEFT TO SEE
SHE'S JUST NO VIRGIN MARY
JUST NO VIRGIN MARY!

And there they lay in sinful bliss
Savouring each other's kiss
Nothing holy left within
Gave in to temptation and sin

They were Gods children, but far from pure
They couldn't resist each other's allure
They were Gods children, but far from pure
Now the afterlife of hell they must endure

i really loved your detail on their sin, not to be offensive of course to other opinions, but love repition and use of allusion in poertry, i believe it shoes true meaning

[Lord Elric of Melnibone]

Uh.... ok, I think you elaborated too much on how sinful they were. Subtle hints would be much more powerful. It's good, though.
