Imprisonment of the Matriarchs

Yaawke' tahaay yuuk

As they gather and seek
Amongst those confined
Hidden hopes
That are housed within hearts and minds
When it sits in your blood
Memory won't decay
Haunting calls
From inside
As they remember

It gives you
Closure that won't come
Conjured visions
Dissociated dreams
When this putrid still
Turns to breeze
Your body remembers

This blackened hole controlling thee
Bringer of disease, unholy keep
Pain, cross, and chains imprisoning
Insufferable plague of divinity

In my contamination
This will secure
It sits within your blood

In my contamination
This will secure
My body remembers

And as I strand from rock beneath
The river floweth between my knees
It was a force that had compulsed
I tried to wash from where it bleeds
This burn not caused by fire
But bloodied assaults
When I'm evoked it draws my blood
When I reflect my mother tongue

When I reflect my mother tongue
