Anoint my body, say the words and lay me in my grave Death was creeping for so long, there's nothing they could save Returned to the Earth The place of my birth Wrap me in my funeral shroud, put coins upon my eyes Burning sage will let your prayers ride smoke into the skies Returned to the womb Once vibrant, no entombed The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down Bury my body, reform my soul Anoint my body, say the words and lay me in my grave Death was creeping for so long, there's nothing they could save Returned to the womb Once vibrant, no entombed The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down
