Say you now your prayers to God
|
And lay you down to sleep
|
Commend your soul your human woes
|
And beg to be His keep
|
I warn you all you waste your breath
|
For no God hears your cry
|
Your mortal coil¡¯s surrendered though
|
To feed the maggot eye
|
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
|
No spawn of hell knows you as well
|
No wisdom is as true
|
No faith as strong as time is long
|
What lies in store for you
|
So beg you now forgiveness for your sins
|
I bid you try
|
Your reasonings are seasonings
|
To feed the maggot eye
|
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
|
Conceived of lust and born to dust
|
Your life lies in between
|
Confusions spell hides time so well
|
That nothing¡¯s what it seems
|
And so you quest for your success
|
Or for some goal you strive
|
Then like the beast become the feast
|
To feed the maggot eye
|
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
|
Oh child of hate condemned to wait
|
For years piled up on years
|
Your passioned pleas on bended knee
|
Are not but cautioned fears
|
For all that lives is claimed by time
|
And nothing may deny
|
And all that¡¯s man shall have it¡¯s end
|
To feed the maggot eye
|
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye
|
Feed the maggot eye.
