The Death & Resurrection Show lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mark out the points

Build the pyre

Assemble different drummers

Light up the fire

Put on your masks

And animal skins

Illumination

Illumination

Listen to the drums

Between each beat

Each beat of the drum

O beloved mother of liberty

Hold me in your arms

[Bridge 1]

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

[Verse 2]

And the day will come

Before the lights go out

Who will you turn to?

Who will you turn to?

Choose the crucifixion

Or Osiris slain

Recurring themes

Time again

[Bridge 2]

Illumination

Illumination

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

[Chorus 1]

Oh how ingenious, the centuries of lies

Ezekiel's chariots streak across the skies

Holy books and history texts

Forget because we know

Souls are recycled in

The death and resurrection show

O beloved woman of liberty

Come to me

[Verse 3]

Everything I'm taught

Amounts to naught

Everything I learn

The fire shall burn

Notions of myself

That I'm not

Whoever I was

Is now lost

[Bridge 3]

Illumination

Illumination

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

[Chorus 2]

Oh how ingenious, the centuries of lies

Ezekiel's chariots streak across the skies

Holy books and history texts

Forget because we know

Souls are recycled in

The death and resurrection show

[Bridge 4]

O beloved woman of liberty

Come to me

Burn away all my impurities

Hold me in your arms

[Bridge 1]

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

Burn burn, burn brightly

Burn burn, burn white heat

[Chorus 3]

Oh how ingenious, the centuries of lies

Ezekiel's chariots streak across the skies

Holy books and history texts

Forget because we know

Souls are recycled in

The death and resurrection show

O beloved woman of liberty

Hold me in your arms
