Here are the lyrics to the song. I must say, Johns voice has never
sounded better. You can actually here every word he says. I hope
Obituary gets another album going while his voice is in its prime...


Lyrics corrected by: Inverted

Sampling:
We are brought forth into this world with nothing
And with nothing we depart
So I commend this body to the ground in loving remembrance
Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

I'm alive but dead, awake but asleep
As friends come around and mourners they weep
My mind is on things that I have done
My body grows cold, but my heart beats on
And on, and on...

As they lower me down into that hole in the ground
I scream out for help, but they hear not a sound
I tear at the lid, my fingers they bleed
Is this happening to me or is it just a dream
Summon the dead
Baphomets call
Blood on my hands

Let me out of here

My bones are decayed, my flesh it does rot
I'm lying in silk, take the lid off this box
My lungs gasp for air, my eyes fiend for sight
I promise the rise of my body this night
Summon the dead
Baphomets call
Blood on my hands
And screaming in torment
I'm telling you all
Take heed to my call
Answer my call
I'm gonna get free
