Defeated Sanity - Suttee

Текст песни

Bound to the lifeless body of her deceased spouse
Firstborn lits the flame to burn both the living and the dead
Made responsible for husbands undoing
Failure to protect from harm seals her fate
Twisted celebration
Unity in death
Worthless as a widow, now begins the
Coerced sacrifice
And a cloud of human smoke
Engulfs the congregation
And you watch in horror
As her body becomes a blistered mess
Family tree uprooted
All within a few days
For loyalty and prestige
Tradition is carried out
Morbid chants, deeply drenched in dogma
As they claim, her absolute devotion
Sacred shrines, to be built in her honor
Won’t alleviate the torment as she burns
Horrifying screams, from her melting face
Terror fused with grief, a world crashing down
Shock carves your psyche, tears will soon dry
Religion will brainwash, to perpetuate the sickness
