Suttee |
Bound to the lifeless body of her deceased spouse |
Firstborn lits the flame to burn both the living and the dead |
Made responsible for husbands undoing |
Failure to protect from harm seals her fate |
Twisted celebration |
Unity in death |
Worthless as a widow, now begins the |
Coerced sacrifice |
And a cloud of human smoke |
Engulfs the congregation |
And you watch in horror |
As her body becomes a blistered mess |
Family tree uprooted |
All within a few days |
For loyalty and prestige |
Tradition is carried out |
Morbid chants, deeply drenched in dogma |
As they claim, her absolute devotion |
Sacred shrines, to be built in her honor |
Won’t alleviate the torment as she burns |
Horrifying screams, from her melting face |
Terror fused with grief, a world crashing down |
Shock carves your psyche, tears will soon dry |
Religion will brainwash, to perpetuate the sickness |
