Lisa Marie Presley attends the 2013 CMT Music awards at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, on June 5, 2013.
Elvis Presley’s only daughter made a creative exit from the Church with the release of her 2012 album “Storm and Grace.” Although her mother, Priscilla, remains a longtime Scientologist, multiple reports of Presley’s disillusionment with the religion appeared to be confirmed in the lyrics to a song on the album, “So Long,” which can be seen as thinly-veiled criticism:
Churches, they don’t have a soul
Soup for sale without a bowl
Religion so corrupt and running lives
Farewell, fair weathered friends
I can’t say I’ll miss you in the end
The star has never officially issued a statement about her split from the Church, though the lyrics tend to say it all.
