lyrics

The maggot born in the apple
The pockmarks, the bruises
The blistered teat of a mammal
Neglects the teeth of the runt
Watch as a bleeding heart succumbs
To cruelty’s kiss of death
A victim chokes through bleeding gums
And still we hold our breath
…until there’s nothing left

This life will surely drag us down
Force the boots upon our heads into the ground
If there isn’t anybody left around
To hear our desperate voices ever make a sound
Though we try our best to turn the other cheek
And the fat and stupid feed upon the weak
The fools’ ship will one day run aground
With its fetid cargo left behind to drown

Ogres
Scumbags and parasites
These bigot troglodytes
The time for talk is now over
The cure is a fist to the mouth
And they deserve no sympathy from better human beings
And we will share no empathy for cowards, thugs and fiends
…who hide behind a screen

As with the bees in the lion decaying in sunlight
So too shall we bring forth the sweet from the belly of the beast

Suck the water in
Take a breath and swim
