Here is the tab for one of the heavier songs on Oracle. This is also one of my favorite songs on the CD. Palm mute as you see fit, sometimes it depends on the distortion you use to get the nice deep tones... Enjoy, and as always: listen for timing!

LYRICS:

Blood spilled
Heart-felt
Head filled
Play dead
Consider yourself now,
My friend
Enemy number one
You are bound and gagged
Sacred circle, broken trust
Now the plague has been cast 
In your town
Acid tongue, venom word
Why bother to lie? Leave the lamb behind

Your mouthful of (lead and lies)

Don't walk in fire
You might find that you'll get burned
What a find, dirty face
Guilt at last, is this a lesson that's learned? 
Can you hear your own blood
In your veins, calling out your demise?
Silence a word to the wise

I can't hear you scream
Drowning so it seems
Your mouth is full of poison
