catharsis - what the thunder said lyrics
welcome to the holy day
this is the day that it all comes true
it will burn like a furnace
every day of your life, recognize yourself for what you
are
when the mouth of h-ll opens up before me, come
suffering:
wash me of my impurities, teach me what it is to want
more
everywhere i turn, the despisers of the body, the
despisers of the soul
angels bleed from out their wounds, demons out from
mine
remind me what’s at stake, drive me day and night
in this forsaken slaughterhouse, god forgot but i have
not
i still know exactly what i want
on the edge of humanity, health and sickness to each
side of me
for the first time i could see i meant nothing to
either one,
time is running out for you, all the things you desire
are hostile to you
your submission and your “holy lies” i’ll never stoop
to understand
you sacrificed yourselves: you raised your temples to
the skies,
plucked your tongues, sewed shut your eyes
raised disease upon a throne
sacrificed the flesh, now nothing left for you but the
bones
in the pit of mortality, health and sickness casting
lots for me
for the first time i could see i meant nothing to
either one
desperate, starved in every way, bloodstained bread
they brought for me
i had nothing, and god help me, i took it while i could
control
nailed to my sacraments, to the marrow of my bones
making my way alone down this road paved with th-rns
struggling to carve a path through the pollution that
surrounds
unburied
death-defying
unbowed.
