PLANNING FOR BURIAL \/ PSALM SPLIT<\/h2>\n

THE SHROUD OF WANT<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

TAKE A BOW YOUR BRIDE IN PIECES<\/p>\n

GOD STRAYED AND MADE THE MAN WITHOUT A SOUL TO CLAIM<\/p>\n

NO CROSS COULD BEAR HIS WEIGHT<\/p>\n

THE DEVIL WALKS UPRIGHT<\/p>\n

A FEVER<\/p>\n

THE MARK OF CAIN<\/p>\n

IN RUIN YOU’LL PRAY<\/p>\n

UPROOTED \u2014 <\/span>WE’LL NEVER INHERIT YOUR SILENCE<\/span><\/p>\n

THEY’RE COMING HOME HUNGRY<\/p>\n

NO BODY WORTH BURNING<\/p>\n

YOUR BRIDE IN PIECES<\/span><\/p>\n

WHERE NAMES ARE WRITTEN ON LEDGERS INSTEAD OF STONE <\/span>SHE’LL PAINT IN RED ALONE<\/span><\/p>\n

HER HANDS YOUR UNDOING<\/span><\/p>\n

VOWS BROKEN<\/span><\/p>\n

THE SHROUD OF WANT<\/span><\/p>\n

HE TOOK AND HE TOOK<\/span><\/p>\n

YOUR FEATHERS <\/span>\u2014 ALL BORROWED<\/span><\/p>\n

IN ASHES <\/span>\u2014 THE WOOD THAT YOU’VE STOLEN YOU’RE CURSING THE FIRE FOR BURNING<\/span><\/p>\n

THE WAGE OF SIN <\/span><\/p>\n

HER HEART IS A BLOODLESS HUNTER<\/span><\/p>\n

THE WELL THAT YOU POISONED YOU’RE BLAMING FOR THIRSTING<\/span><\/p>\n

SHE’S ON YOUR SCENT<\/span><\/p>\n

HER HEART IS A BLOODLESS HUNTER<\/span><\/p>\n

THE GOD THAT YOU’RE CLAIMING ALREADY STOPPED LISTENING<\/span><\/p>\n

YOUR BLOOD WILL TELL<\/span><\/p>\n

YOUR FATE IS A LOADED CHAMBER<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

THERE’LL BE NOTHING LEFT TO BURY IN THE DIRT<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

YOUR CURFEW HAS COME AND SO HAVE I<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

MEASURE OF MY SACRIFICE <\/span>\u2014 UNHOLY OATH<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

FOR NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU<\/span><\/p>\n

AND WHEN YOU’RE GONE, EVEN YOUR NAME WILL BE FORGOTTEN<\/p>\n

YOUR BODY BENT BENEATH MY WILL \u2014 MY TESTAMENT<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

HE NEVER SAW THE KNIFE I CHOSE FOR HIM<\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

THE DUST WILL RISE AND SO HAVE I <\/span><\/p>\n

BEG<\/span><\/p>\n

I WILL REAP MY DUE<\/span><\/p>\n

GOD STRAYED AND MADE THE MAN<\/span><\/p>\n

WITHOUT A SOUL TO CLAIM<\/span><\/p>\n

NO CROSS COULD BEAR HIS WEIGHT<\/span><\/p>\n

FOR THE DEVIL WILL CRAWL<\/span><\/p>\n

S\/T<\/h2>\n

I AM THE SLAUGHTER<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I AM THE SLAUGHTER<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I\u2019LL SERVE YOU COLD<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

AN ORPHAN OF MY BODY<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

YOUR DEEPEST END<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE THEFT THAT SHE SUFFERED UPON YOUR BED<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A SEED SOWN IN WANTING<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

HER FRUIT YOUR LAST<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A TRIAL BY FIRE \u2014 I\u2019LL LIGHT THE MATCH<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

ALL HELL HATH NO FURY<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I AM THE SLAUGHTER<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I\u2019LL SERVE YOU COLD<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

FEAST OF THE EPIPHANY<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

CLEAR THE FLOOR AND GATHER SOAPS AND LEAD<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE FLOWER PRUNED AND ROBBED OF ITS OWN SCENT<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

MAKING ROOM FOR THOSE WORTH KEEPING:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THEY\u2019LL RATION OUT THE BREAD JUST FOR MY FRIENDS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE THREAD FRAYS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A RIPENING \u2014 THE WAR THAT WANTS FOR THEM<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LED THEM TO THE DARK FROM WHICH THEY CAME<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

MAKING ROOM FOR THOSE WORTH KEEPING:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THEY\u2019LL RATION OUT THE BREAD JUST FOR MY FRIENDS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE THREAD FRAYS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE CLOTH THEY\u2019RE CUTTING FOR THE QUILT OF PRIDE ALL MEN ARE HIDING UNDER<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A FOREIGN HEART INSIDE THEM BEATING<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

THE FLESH THAT AUTHORED THEM: A RECKONING<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

UNWORTHY SON<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

REDLINE MY NAME, UNWORTHY SON<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

CAST TO YOUR GATE: I\u2019LL BURN IT DOWN<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

FED AND FORSAKEN FOR ALL MEN\u2019S SORROWS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LAY OUT MY BURDEN SIX FEET TOO SHALLOW<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

YOUR HOUR WILL COME, UNWORTHY SON<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

CAST TO YOUR GATE: I\u2019LL BURN IT DOWN<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

FED AND FORSAKEN FOR ALL MEN\u2019S SORROWS<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LAY OUT MY BURDEN SIX FEET TOO SHALLOW<\/p>\n
