Freedom Of The Wretched Songtext / Lyric

The one the wretched tearing clear a space for your spine
On his mantle, the only place you will lay God has wants and god provides, but not for free
The prophets knew this when they began their holy journey
Into the valley, into the shadow, into their deaths
A martyr, a monster, to be led to the slaughter
Dues are paid to the master
String them up, do it faster The horrid surrender, the flesh has cleared you a way
Wipe your mind from the grindstone, left at bay to decay

Extricate myself I must, be relieved from my doom I must
Clinging to death, fighting for breath
I fall and I catch myself looking you in the eyes
And I scream, fuck you and your lies
Then you sing back, why do you care, everybody dies
I fall and I catch myself, I fight for breath, I cling to death

The one the wretched living in trenches and hiding the stenches of
Rotting and laughing away all the day
The one the wretched one

Swinging from corpse to corpse, I must get away from this tree
Slipping on the flesh so tender, ripping from the bone
Clinging to ropes and bones, ropes and bones, ropes and bones

Screaming she must not get away,
Bring her back here, back to me, to the tree
I need her; I need her here with me,
My sacrifice is nothing without her blood
Without her adornment upon the lord with me

Upon the lord with me

Drag her back here kicking and screaming
Rip her; rip her from moment?s peace
And hang her; and hang her here with me
You break her open I will drink her blood
God will be appeased, I must ascend; I will ascend to heaven

I will take my place by his hand

My prayers will not go unanswered
I will take my place by his hand

How I long to get away from this god that consumes offspring
We both shed our blood today, but it marks your god now in vain

Extricate myself I must, be relieved from my doom I must
?Cause I?m determined to get away,
but this blood it won?t soon fade away

Swinging from corpse to corpse, I must get away from this tree
Slipping on the flesh so tender, ripping from the bone
Clinging to ropes and bones, ropes and bones, ropes and bones

Run!
