Lyrics
The Offering
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Summoned by the winds on the primeval ocean
Under the waves the earth's creation
Deities of a dead world
The gods formed their pantheon
This place
This Mesoamerica
Seeks desperate divination
What was your obsession with time and sacrifice
Bloodletting
Clouds of black smoke
A burning blood offering
All in attempts to speak to the vision serpents
A Mayan offering to hear the serpent sing
Rise and fall
Who's meant to have it all
Calendars of the ancient
A cascade of catastrophe
The collapse
Both natural and man made
Astronomical prophecy
Scarred by time
