Transcript

Tear the roots up from the floor, Born and tore against the door, murder, murder Sink the tooth into the wood, still the horses with a hood Murder, murder, murder, murder Reads the book and casts the oil

Fingers in the father's soil, murder, murder, murder Be thy name out, out, murder be thy name When the land fills up with straw You cut the wire from the jaw Murder, murder, murder When the eye reflects the moon Hold the tongue down with the spoon Murder, murder, murder, murder, when the throat's stills in the fall

Pry the altar from the hole Murder, murder, murder, murder, murder, murder Be thy name, house, house, murder, be thy name Ohh I scratched the deed upon the beast

I see it, I'm on the scene Carry on on brothers in I trace the blood upon the heart I trace the blood upon the heart And try to change the split car roof Murder, murder, murder, murder Murder be thy name Out, out, murder be thy name If the spine begins to twist, find the irons to the wrist.

If the gambles bit and thrash, steal your feet into the ash. If the mud you gave it all, hold on to the slaughter's soul.
