Decompose and Decay
Baptized in the fires of pain
Judged by those with no name
Rise against those who take without shame
Show those fools they hold no sway
Your destination is all known
Six feet under you will go
Decomposition is thy art
For all that’s left is flesh and bone
Impurity is undefined
Listen to the words of the blind
Hearts all choked and full of pride
Where all goes yet nothing slide
Never mourning ever swarming
Turning black without warning
A million years of evolution
Never changed this revolution
From life to death that is the way
And that is how it shall remain.
