lyrics

Into a greasy mud I dig, I dig a hole
Descending the ladder leading to the underworld
There's hell under your feets, why can't you get it right ?
Forget all your beliefs, there's no more heaven in sight
You're the next meal for what is lurking below
Your end is near, and it's time for you to know

I feel a thousand maggots
Lurking under my skin
I'm worm infested
From the mouth to the chin
They all fulfill my chest
I'm not longer living
For this swarm I'm a nest
When flesh turns to rot

I'm a dead but breathing corpse compressed in a muddy coffin
No memories are lost, for those, who are slowly feasting
Keepers of remembrances as flesh is surely disolving
Brown eyeless witnesses of those who once were living

What is this ageless vermin whom since the dawn of man
Procreate in the marrow, they are the dead's spokane
Force fed fornication under vitrified eye
Slimy orgy of worms warming madly the rancid fluids
Swarming boneless legion
Cacophony of creak
Blinded livid army
Beholders of the reek
I can feel them chewing my remains
As I stand still
Inside this moisted casket
Where I can't scream

I'm becomming a part, of that new family
As my body is turning into a home
For flies and fleas
The data of a lifetime are joining the assembly
I'm now immortal among the ravenous with no teeth
The cycle is complete, my skeleton is bleached
They are all satiated, waiting for the upcoming feast
Where in my turn I will consume and recycle
Just like they did to me, the day after...
...I died

I'm a living worm moving out of a muddy coffin
No memories are lost, for us, we are slowly feasting
I swallow remembrances as flesh is surely disolving
I'm an eyeless witness of those who once were living
