Necropol Lit Lyrics
Remake
Here I am in Necropolis
Run my fingers down my spine
'Neath my feet a thousand ruins
Coming here in my own time
Here I am and here I'm staying
Queen of all that crawls and dies
Queen of crippled, blistered bodies
It's all done and it's all mine
Lay down all at your master's feet
The taint is on you now
This is my turf, this is my land
so let the virtue go
And now I see in painful clarity
Intention that was and the truth that will be
Remember Necropol lit
Wading through the mirthless alleys
Smell the fear, the cold stale air
Bones and teeth, a garden withered
Broken hands and broken lives
Remember

According to the band: "Necropol is the city of the dead, in Greek. I think of it as huge stone buildings with rough slabs. A city for dead people is a very cruel irony: putting all that effort into building a town that no one will ever live in. Waste. Doing so much for absolutely nothing."
