You know we built our houses Where we were burning bodies The ground still remembers The ground is still bloody So if there's an above And this is below Then surely we can sink no further And there's nowhere else to go The stench of death was always here As far as I recall As were the sounds devoid of pleasure Words laced with vitriol Between now and then Between us and them Never will you see Men and angels breaking bread As above, so below Spent is thy litany Hate thy neighbour Shake his hand and strike him dead Weep in fear and wonderment Of what you have become A superman, a God on earth Can't be others 'til there's one Weep in fear and wonderment Of what you have become A superman and death itself Can't be others 'til there's one It'd take more than a few men To put out the word But they're of little potential Men fall down and they fold I call upon my memories now But some seem to have departed What I used to know is but a blur I guess it mattered when it mattered You know we built our houses Where we were burning bodies The ground remembers The ground is still bloody You're excused, but not forgiven For whatever is past and done For when you couldn't commit This is a funeral This is a funeral This is a funeral
