Zola JesusAbout
Making a critically acclaimed comeback after her 5th studio album, Taiga, Zola Jesus combined the best traits of her previous works to give a new, elemental and raw sense to “Exhumed,” the first taste of her sixth album Okovi.

Exhumed Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bury the tongue between the teeth
Open the jaw and sink in deep
Force it open and claw the grip
Down throat, you let it slip, slip, slip, slip, slip
[Verse 2]
In the static you are reborn
In the white nights, what you ask for
Fire the cue, and I'll come for
Give you the marks of a lost war
[Counter]
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
[Verse 3]
Cut knife, deep in, spit down, swallow
Sword up, nock in, and turn the bow
Sever in two and fuse to gold
Down throat, you let it go
[Counter]
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
Let it sink
Don't let it hold you down
