Sumac - Blackout lyrics

Words of summons Long since blown Into dust, beyond memory What remains Sting of dirt in eyes Clotted on wriggling tongue Under bent cedar Low branches hang Silent witness To birth spasms Bristling beast Burning hot breath Odor of violence Stammering wrath Ceremony of terrible emergence Known without lesson (Knelt to pray) Liberated in worship Devout in practice Delivering the sermon To a subservient Congregation of one Submission, all must bend Facade is broken
