Gory evidence of an entertainer's death
Along with the remains
Of several rare horses
Animals which appear to have been
Sacrificed as well
Were found in the ruins
Of a building at a site called Tell Brak
Which was once the ancient
City of Nagar
Sacrificed as well
2000 years before Christ
They enter the room of pain
Bizarre sacrificial ceremony
Kind of ritualistic performance
That culminated in death by beheading
Sacrificed as well
2000 years before Jesus Christ
Propitiation of the Gods
Centuries of gore
Countless wandering souls
Thousands of victims
In the name of the Gods
For the elitist crowd, they performed
Their most precious tricks, wonderful show
Perfection of moves
Aesthetic, symmetric, ecstatic
They enter the room of pain
They enter the sacrificial room
Propitiation of the Gods
