about

Who sells this mummer‘s farce to the unsuspecting masses? Without the priests, no mythology can take root. The true believers turn to their manufactured god and ply their trade…

lyrics

MEATCRAFT

The sun sits low in the crook of the mountain
A heart pumps blood for the vultures to feed
A weathered face looks up to the oldest gods he knows
And sets his chest unto the trees

The forest groans as he approaches
He comes to take the timber down
To conjure fire, smoke, and ash
Bring his quarry to the town

Meatcraft - the ancient ways, Meatcraft - the knife obeys
Tonight we swath the blood above our door
Meatcraft - the tools of flame, meatcraft - a butcher’s fame
Tonight we eat the spoils of our war

The sharpest blade waits for the master
The roasting pit a spark in his eye
Starts at sunrise, works through the night
The salted flesh he piles high

He browns his charge to sweet perfection
Licks his lips, stands to admire
Greasy fingers, blackened face
His meat will stand the test of time

Taste the blood and sweat brought about your meal
Savor flesh and bone - the moment of the kill
You will die my son but today is not the day
With steely eyes the hunter sets upon his prey

Meatcraft tonight we feast, meatcraft and slay the beast,
meatcraft a sharpened blade, meatcraft, an honored trade
