Resurrection Rites Lyrics

The dead don't have to stay dead
We can call them back from hell
Beckoning them with our words
Bodies preserved until return

The dead can return to us
If we don't bury the body
Speak each day of what they loved
Remind them why they need to return

The dead don't have to stay dead
Bodies soaked in special herbs
A way to stop decomposition
Though the heart no longer beats

The dead can return to us
Take proper care of the body
Cut the hair and trim the nails
Keeping close the things they loved

The dead don't have to stay dead
If only we have enough time
If no fools dare to interfere
The dead can live again
