@[E:35420].Ransom @[mike104775:35421] This is my own take on the song. My read is that Moz refuses to demonize the weakness of an otherwise good person and wrote a song capturing the sentiment of remorse--and even genuine affection--of a pedophile priest over his victim, for whom he feels hope and good will despite his own moral failures. I'll check out your page, for sure. |

This is the confessional prayer of an ex-priest who molested an altar boy. Morrissey wears a clerical collar on the cover of the single. The priest, appropriately racked with guilt and defrocked, sincerely wants to see that he hasn't totally ruined a life. His dying wish is to see that his victim finds healing and happiness. |
