Killing Joke - The Death & Resurrection Show Lyrics
Mark out the pointsBuild the pyreAssemble different drummersLight up the firePut on your masksAnd animal skinsIllumination, illuminationListen to the drumsBetween each beat, each beat of the drumO beloved mother of libertyHold me in your armsBurn burn, burn brightlyBurn burn, burn white heatAnd the day will comeBefore the lights go outWho will you turn toWho will you turn toChoose the crucifixionOr Osiris slainRecurring themes, time again.Illumination, illuminationBurn burn, burn white heatOh how ingenious the centuries of liesEzekiels chariots streak across the skiesHoly books and history texts forgetBecause we knowSouls are recycled in the death andResurrection showO beloved mother of libertyCome to meEverything Im taught, amounts to noughtEverything I learn, the fire shall burnNotions of myself that when Im notWhoever I was is now lostIllumination, illuminationBurn burn, burn brightlyBurn burn, burn white heatOh how ingenious the centuries of liesEzekiels chariots streak across the skiesHoly books and history texts forgetBecause we knowSouls are recycled in the death andResurrection showO beloved mother of libertyCome to meBurn away all my impuritiesHold me in your armsBurn burn, burn brightlyBurn burn, burn white heat
