about

David Koresh rose through the ranks of the religious group called the Branch Davidians. After becoming their leader, the Brand Davidians started stalk piling guns and ammunition. One day the postal service opened one of the packages destined for the Davidians Waco Texas compound. In the package, they found live grenades which they reported to the ATF. The ATF decided to try and make an example of the Brand Davidians by holding a publicity stunt of storming the compound. This turned into an unending siege of the compound. ATF and Branch Davidians both deny firing the first shots. In the end, a massive firefight breaks out and the plywood compound burns to the ground. When the carnage settled only 88 survivors were left of the Brand Davidians. David Koresh was found in the rubble of the compound with a gunshot wound to the head.

lyrics

“Jesus is coming back? Did he forget something? Nope. Jesus is coming back for armageddon”

David Koresh the master
The one who would save them all
Destined to be a disaster
For he watched the building fall

The compound burned down no one alive was found
83 succumb due to the Branch Davidians
They were lost in a fire of David's true desire
To be the one who knows the weapons weren't for show

There's people looking in, they're staring at my sin
Time to cock back the guns David preached not to Run
With ATF weapons drawn I know it won't be too long
Until the walls crumble Down then David wears his crown

David Koresh thoughts depress
He would put you in duress
Would force women to undress
He would always try to feed you
But he'd never try to please you
He'll consume your mind and body

Our sinful messiah
My sinful messiah

He'll lead you into belief
Separate you from your grief
Thought he could heal
But only if he broke the seventh seal

I cry for the sinful messiah
I will die for the sinful messiah

David and the seventh seal
David and the seventh seal

Even though he has passed
His legacy will last
Few have escaped alive
To them the truths a lie
They fought back with their guns
To protect the sun
They repent in fear
That David is no longer here———

I will siege you
In your fortress
blind you with light
wake you at night
I will siege you———

I will Cry For My Sinful Messiah
To take us away

We were lost
We were found
Then burnt into the ground

Murder, conspiracy, supernatural horror, and real-life terror are stains on the cutting room floor where Edmonton-based group Tales of The Tomb paints their canvas. ... more
