“CHVRCH BVRNER” is the third song on the band’s sixth effort, “Periphery IV: HAIL STAN”. Sonically, the song is a fast, ruthless and heavy track.
“This isn’t a concept record in any way, shape or form, but Blood Eagle and CHVRCH BVRNER go lyrically hand in hand because it’s the mirrored opposite. T...
[Verse 1]
A loving priest, a lonely town
Everybody wants a piece of it now
There's a static, it's alive in the battleground
Blow the horn and then we wait for the sound
Step back on the stair to black
They all need a piece of it
They all want something
[Chorus 1]
The filthy lies
Our people, they fantasize
Hold the light
Reach for life
No sacrifice
No offer in sacred rite
Bow for one or for none
[Chorus 2]
We'll burn them 'til the end
Cross on top of it
Men bow down and snap the neck for it
Hang 'em high
The population in a rack now
Looking to overcome it somehow
Flirting with the conversion
A dirge within the confines
A dirge within the confines
Relieve it somehow
[Refrain]
Soaked in red toe to head
Deathbed desire
Fire
Soaked in red toe to head
Deathbed desire
Fire
[Bridge]
One god
For the one god
Everywhere there's one god
For the one god
Everywhere the burning of our gods
One god
For the one god
Everywhere there's one god
For the one god
Everywhere the burning of our gods
Everywhere the burning of our gods
Open up the heart or die
[Chorus 2]
We'll burn them 'til the end
Cross on top of it
Men bow down and snap the neck for it
Hang 'em high
Hang 'em high
[Chorus 1]
The filthy lies
Our people, they fantasize
Hold the light
Reach for life
No sacrifice
No offer in sacred rite
Bow for one or for none
[Refrain]
They've got 'em pulling in a rack now (Pulling in a rack)
Soaked in red toe to head
Deathbed desire
Fire
Soaked in red toe to head
Deathbed desire
Fire
