Glorified in Bloodsmoke Lyrics

Led by rope, the steps slope on
Temple rises in reverence to the sun
Filth litters the upward path
Dread preludes the bloodbath
Pain resounds through hollowed socket skulls
The echoed offerings of butchered hearts

Breathing condemnation
Pulsing blood to simply die

Sacrifice, the anguished dispersed
Gifted torment to quantify
Downward thrust to rupture the chest
Torn & beating, the heart's secrets attest
Now trophies on staffs
Spears of the sun melt lifeless eyes

Obsidian blade in priestly hands
Thorned ropes heaped in strands
Brazer of coals roaring god speech
An end to plague they beseech

Dispersal of pain, thorned ropes are drawn
Through tongues they scream in bloody yawn

Upon the brazer blood boils, smoke to rise
Tidings sent direct to godly skies
Between vertebrae, head removed
Skinned, bored and grooves
For war and rain the skulls are racked
Centuries of death for divine contact

Obsidian blade in priestly hands
Thorned ropes heaped in strands
Brazer of coals roaring god speech
An end to plague they beseech

Dispersal of pain, thorned ropes are drawn
Through Tongues
They scream in bloody yawn
