Ritual Violence Songtext

Ritual Violence Songtext
Dig these bodies deep, fifty people wide
Dig down far below enough, keeping them from the flies
Decaying in the heat, calling to the Earth
Larvae, eggs, and maggots would all bring much more than Her
Come sundown we′re completing
The unknown ossuary
As we turn to leave
I see a boy watching from the trees
One man says ransom, another says the gun
Regardless of the outcome we agree that his life is done
Pursue him through the woods, bag him quickly now
Toss him in the trunk and we will figure the way out how
To claim this child as our own
A boy turned into man
Giving him the gun
He'll have a murder on his hands
See his crimson grin, his soul is buried now
I see clearly my own past has been reflected somehow
This cycle of violence; it′s ritual in the Earth
Dig down far below enough, keeping them from the flies
Decaying in the heat, calling to the Earth
Larvae, eggs, and maggots would all bring much more than Her
Come sundown we′re completing
The unknown ossuary
As we turn to leave
I see a boy watching from the trees
One man says ransom, another says the gun
Regardless of the outcome we agree that his life is done
Pursue him through the woods, bag him quickly now
Toss him in the trunk and we will figure the way out how
To claim this child as our own
A boy turned into man
Giving him the gun
He'll have a murder on his hands
See his crimson grin, his soul is buried now
I see clearly my own past has been reflected somehow
This cycle of violence; it′s ritual in the Earth
