Lyrics Violent Death Rituals - Thanatos

Violent Death Rituals

Violent death rituals, disturbing ways to die
Violent death rituals, unholy sacrifice
Violent death rituals, defiling the deceased
Violent death rituals, so they can rest in peace
Endo-cannibalism, feasting on the dead
I express my eternal love, by ripping you to shreds
A permanent connection, between the living and the dead
A cathartic acceptation, of death’s tragic aftermath
At the funeral of the Viking chieftain, the widow paid the price
Raped by many men, stabbed, strangled, left to die
The bodies of man and wife, on a wooden ship set alight
So she could serve her master, in eternal afterlife
Violent death rituals, to enter afterlife
Violent death rituals, unholy sacrifice
Your body’s just a vessel, you leave it when you die, your corpse sustains the
life
When your fate is sealed, your body is a meal, for the vulture in the sky
Ritual dissection, a Tibetan tradition, prepare for your sky burial
Summoning the spirits, by tearing you apart, a 'dignified' ritual
Victimized by Sharia laws, whipped or stoned to death
Hung for blasphemy, crucified for theft
Thrown headfirst from a building for deviant sexuality
Raped, yet sentenced for adultery, welcome to the 21st century
