Anathema
At One With The Earth
[Intro]
The intense grasp death's strangle-hold has over me
Confines me to my own personal agony
Set me free, let me go
Release the chilling grasp with which it clutches me
[Verse 1]
The earth issues it's extreme unction
As I realise my punishment for sin
Enguifed by death for all eternity
In my bones I no longer feel the cold
As the mire unbosoms it's secrets to me
[Outro]
Ubiquitous fetidness, death is everywhere
My God, unshackle me
My suffering grows with increase of my guilt
Destroy devotion. Be at one with the earth
I sink down into the clammy soil
At one with the earth
