Cryptopsy – Graves of the Fathers
Audio Published on March 26, 2015
Lyrics
Sextons of the churchyard
Have seen unblessed things;
Ground no longer hallowed
Has sprouted new graves.
Descendants of clan
That unsurped maternity
hear whispers in their blood;
This summons of the Fathers.
Adherence to the principle
Of "man by woman born"...
Anachronistic ritual
Soon to be obsolete.
"Forgive me Father
For I know not what I do;
My grave beckons
As irresistible as drawing breath."
Nature abhors a vacuum,
The same is true to a tomb...
It cannot be empty. ... See More
Have seen unblessed things;
Ground no longer hallowed
Has sprouted new graves.
Descendants of clan
That unsurped maternity
hear whispers in their blood;
This summons of the Fathers.
Adherence to the principle
Of "man by woman born"...
Anachronistic ritual
Soon to be obsolete.
"Forgive me Father
For I know not what I do;
My grave beckons
As irresistible as drawing breath."
Nature abhors a vacuum,
The same is true to a tomb...
It cannot be empty. ... See More
