Split Wide Open - Lyrics by Cannibal Corpse


Lyrics
Melting thoughts of disintegration
Hitting deep her insistanceto mutilate her newborn infants
After giving birth her mind wasn't the same
Slowly slipping away, a state of mental decay
Family now complete
Father watches on
As mother dismembersher newborn son
Dissecting the specimen, split
I will explore, the body wide open
Uncover carnage within, split wide open
Virgin, untouched skin
Releasing her rage
That dwells insidetainted blood rushes through veinsher body chemically changed
Love was erased, on the edge of a butcher'sknife
The kitchen becomes a makeshift slaughterhouseevery nine months she butchers one more child
Reminders of the deceased, scattered throughthe homebones and skulls of sons and daughters
Genitals ferment
In jars inside the cupboardsfor father to dissect
No one will discover the murder they commit
Children used like laboratory rats
Sickening vulgar experiments
She sees what others can't
Probing the guts of her fetus
Advocation of the pain
Mutilating, draining veins
Witness the horroroffering to themselves
Continuing murderingtheir own kind
Never denythis fantasy life, they enjoy
Addiction to this heightened state
Post-birth psychosisdisjointing her own childrenform the life they'll never live
A massacre within her soul
Struggling for control
