LYRICS
\nHave you heard what they did?
\nMarched her up a pyramid
\n’till they screamed for more
\nSplit her skin wide open
\nExposing blood and gore<\/p>\n

Have you heard what they’ve done?
\nLocked her in a dungeon
\nBrought the dragon in
\nDisgracing the glen
\nWith disdain and sin<\/p>\n

Have you heard what they do?
\nPlease take upon my peace pipe
\nLit with magic stick
\nand, offer it, offer it, offer it up a bit<\/p>\n

Sacrament
\nSacrifice
\nYou decide which is right
\nSacrament
\nWill suffice
\nIn shedding the light<\/p>\n

“Human sacrifice was a religious practice characteristic of pre-Columbian Aztec civilization, as well as of other mesoamerican civilizations such as the Maya and the Zapotec.” “Heart-extraction was viewed as a means of liberating the istli and reuniting it with the Sun, as depicted in Codex Magliabechiano, Folio 70 (illustrated in this section), wherein a victim’s transformed heart flies Sunward on a trail of blood.” “The Aztecs would give a series of rituals to unlucky nearby tribesman to be sacrificed with an obsidian knife, and donate their blood to Acolnahuacatl, an Aztec god. When they had known he had finished his drink and he was no longer thirsty, they would end the sacrificing. This ritual would go on for a whole weekend, so as to please the gods.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A sacrament is “a Rite in which God is uniquely active”<\/p>\n

“A calumet is a ceremonial smoking pipe used by some Native American nations. Traditionally it has been smoked to seal a covenant or treaty, or to offer prayers in a religious ceremony.”<\/p>\n
