[Musick - Mike Beams, Lyrixxx - Matt Harvey]

|
All the world's indeed a corpse, and we are merely maggots
|
Dead on arrival is our only course, and if the toe fits, tag it
|
Sycophants, we're writhing blind, feeding off each others' regurgitation
|
Disgorging whatever waste we find, breeding our degradation with each
|
exhalation...
|
|
Lambs to the slaughter
|
Feast of fools upon the fodder
|
No trompe l'oreil to behold
|
Just a wretched drama to unfold...
|
|
Gnarled within this mortal coil
|
Within which the voracious feebly toil
|
Enamored of our own disease
|
We revel in our own grotesqueries...
|
|
Dissecting ourselves to find nothing alive
|
Just a mass of perversely animated pieces
|
Nothing within worthwhile to revive
|
We're mired knee-deep in our own fetid feces
|
|
Gorging our gnawing jaws with our own pathological waste
|
Like grubs wriggling in the rank feast of decay
|
We grind our own bones into dust each futile step we take
|
As we inch unseeing through day after day...
|
|
Consumer or consumed
|
We all end up as chyme and grume
|
Upon the fetid mass we choke
|
Leaving us in no position to appreciate the sick joke...
|
|
Twisted through this mortal coil
|
Now our unctuous desserts are brought to a boil
|
Somewhere between the living and the deceased
|
We gag on the feast of our grotesqueries...
|
|
[Lead - Mike]
|
|
Too consumed by consumption to see our own ends
|
We're all dead and only getting deader
|
Digging our own graves into which we gladly descend
|
In this cold coil we're shackled and fettered
|
|
As we ingest each others' waste, in a frenzied feeding rush
|
Leaving everything sick and dead in our wake
|
Devouring each other in ravening, unheeding crush
|
As we gorge ourselves on all the tripe and offal we can intake...
|
|
Crass menagerie
|
Eschatological estuary
|
We create each others' atrocities
|
In this grotesquery
|
|
Asphyxiated by this mortal coil
|
Reaping rancid fruits long since despoiled
|
Until our depraved lives at last surcease
|
We'll hunger for more grotesqueries...
