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.
