Funeral Lyrics

A shadow speaks
Won't you give me
your hand?
She's talking in her sleep
Speaking in tongues again

Why must we cut so deep?
I reckon she said
Before fading
into a trance

"Oh, evil one
I came to die, said Mary
You watch my funeral

She weeps
But not in sorrow
Curses not in pain
Do you remember me?
Tell me, what can
you see now?

Mystified, from here
there's no return
What am I doing here?
Chained to the stone
The goat sits with us
Please join us
On this table
Now whip me hard
with chains in hand!

"Oh, evil one
I came to die, said Mary
You watch my funeral

Those crystal eyes
Mirrors of doom
I see a sacrifice!

"Release me
from this body"
She's just a prisoner
in time
Not in the company
of angels
Bewitched to serve
in hell, in hell

Throw the horns
with me dear

"Drink the blood of ages
Sinister ways of the law
Oh, don't you look
away now!
It's so funny now...

Funeral! Funeral! Funeral!
