Testo I Am the Ritual - Hexvessel
Testo della canzone I Am the Ritual (Hexvessel), tratta dall'album Dawnbearer (Re-issue 2017)
Miraculous flames transform my sacred energy
Into a guardian spirit, I am ash and dust
Trace the symbols in newly turned earth
To give this servant new strength
Separate the soul, pull their children out from the lakes
Caress them by flames, celebrated by death
Seized with sweet frenzy, a climax to the ceremony
Purifying powers of the fire
All smeared with oil, all smeared with blood
Holy mother merciful, holy mother angel
Holy mother merciful, holy mother angel
Holy mother merciful, holy mother angel
Holy mother merciful
Hot winds roar, I am the altar
The bone rattle shakes, I am the drum
The canary jaw breaks, I am in the soil
Cinders in the hearth, I am the ash
The tail feathers coagulate, I am the blood
A pile of fragments, I am the dust
Blown to the four corners of the world
Oh Lord, have mercy on me
Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul
The initiation's end, leave behind regrets
Draw me in the dirt, draw me to the stars
Sung between the tears, remembered for a day and a year
Rhythm builds up, I am the barrel
The chanting grows louder, I am the sun
The rope constricts, I am the fever ritual
The feet turn the dust, I am the dust
The convulsing of muscles, I am the sweat
The vessel is a blessed sacrifice
Sacrificed for us all
Oh Lord, have mercy on me
Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul
The initiation's end, leave behind regrets
Draw me in the dirt, draw me to the stars
Sung between the tears, remembered for a day and a year
