Seer - Burnt Offerings Lyrics

The smoke rises from the funeral pyre
He watches as his remains contort at the will of the winds 
Much as his body did in life 
They pushed and pulled at his skin

The ancients called to deaf ears
A primordial instinct disowned 
He walked among the ones who walk
And fell amongst those who die 

He who built the shape 
And denied his form be shaped by them
He who fought his ways
The smoke consumes him 

Come, enter the salt circle 
Discern this use for the dead
A shorter path is revealed 
By he who eats his time

The symbol grants his passage
He is embraced within
Spirit coalesced
He, the great waste
