Cover art for Cry for the Moon (The Embrace That Smothers Part IV) lyrics by Epica

This is the 4th song from 'the Embrace that Smothers', a serie of songs written by Mark Jansen, started of with the band After Forever, but continued by Epica after Jansen switched bands.

Like all other songs of this serie, this song is a statement against organised religion. In specific this song deals about the sexual abuse of little children by catholic priests. It also states the hypocritic behavior of these priests (and the church in general) telling us what to do and not to do, accusing us of being sinful, while committing worse crimes themself.
