"Anoint The Dead" lyrics

"Anoint The Dead"

Anoint the dead!

Desensitized and oblivious
We have conspired to renegotiate
These unburdened sins must now be sanctified once again
Purified, within this fire

You're going to burn and your family is gonna watch
These flames will overtake you as you quiver from the shock

So lie back in your makeshift tomb
Flinch as the accelerant flows
Hold your breath as we strike the match
Then scream until the flames make contact
This is a necessity, you have been begging to be cleansed
This was always a priority, we must anoint the dead

The smell of burning flesh fulfills our world
It replaces the stinging stench of humanity

Simply put we are the antidote
We have been sent here to replace
This tattered shell we helped build create

The smell of burning flesh fulfills our world
It replaces the stinging stench of humanity

These empty promises have now been fulfilled
Through the hallowed fire
