CREMATION (lyrics)

when she walks on the path
that leads away
processions around the gaths
preparations for the dying
to serve our hindu gods

100,000 burning bodies
all for Agni, the fire god
offerings for the masses
to serve
a terror squad

facing south
on a layer of sacred grass

through stagnant water
thick with scum and rotting flowers
we drift towards the burning ghats
where your coil of smoke rises
into the air from
a mass of ashes

fire
burns itself out
burns itself out
fire
