Ritual of Purification Lyrics


(Leviticus 14:19)

"The priest shall next offer the purification offering,

making atonement on behalf of the one being purified from the uncleanness.

After this the burnt offering shall be slaughtered."

Pull the guts from the innards

Splash the blood on the altar

Burn the dismembered corpse

Analogies of the grotesqueness of sin!

Nauseating foul aroma

Of the sin that burns within!

Disturbing sacrificial bloodshed

For the malicious deeds I've done!

[Chorus]

I look upon your wounds

Wounds I've inflicted

You suffered immensely despite seeing

all the evil I would do

For you looked into the future

And saw the fulness of mankind’s sin

And still you chose

To bear their punishment...

[Chorus]

I look upon your wounds

Wounds I've inflicted

You suffered immensely despite seeing

all the evil I would do
