Where Their Worm Never Dies

Rats and roaches in volcanic streams From snares, traps, and webs there is no escape Bad vows made of violence Now in blackness they all vent Where their worm never dies and the fire's never quenched Killer kings and queens now they all are sick slaves Rich and ruthless rulers all stripped bare,slashed and slain With forever to think about their monstrous lives all horribly mispent Where their worm never dies and the fire's never quenched Maniacal millionaires all sitting and strapped to electric chairs No means of escape from this necronightmare And this new beginning becomes their final end Where their worm never dies and the fire's never quenched The tide of time keeps twisting and turning The fires of forever keep blazing and burning While the worms keep on seething and squirming No fear of the future No care of consequence Where their worm never dies and the fire's never quenched
