Welcome to the Orgy

Prepare to meet thy maker
As your temples crumble
The preacher of such a holy order
His faith, now hysterical frenzy
The priest impaled upon the crucifix
A final prayer, through bubbles of blood
Ecstatic moans of a death orgasm
Romanticise life at God’s side.
Welcome to the orgy
Take up your cross
BLEED
Pandora’s box now open
Let the orgy commence
A frenzy to be cleansed
The disease the church has spread
Original sin; the crime of ignorance
A soul yet to be purged
Vomits forth and breaks it’s chains
And the church lays in ruins and bleeds
Welcome to the orgy
Original sin
BLEED
The God fearing folk
Now repent in hiding
Pray for forgiveness
Still now before the cross
AND NOW AFTER THE HOLOCAUST
WHO WILL FEED THE CHURCH
NONE SO DIVINE
AS YOUR DECAYING DIVINITY
Welcome to the orgy
The church lays in ruins
And bleeds

Despair

My legs and arms bound, I roll on my back
Stare up at the light in the endless spiral
Like a grain of clean sand on a polluted beach
A paltry cry amidst a thunderstorm
Below the earth is alive with the spaghetti of power
Although today it seems to be strangling the core itself
And the shadow of a million concrete tombstones
Casts a chill worse than death upon my heart
On opening the packaged can of freedom
Anxiously await the high the advert preached
Disappointed I gulp down my chemical refreshment
And throw the empty lie on the mile high tip
And every cold face I meet knows it’s gone too far
But we’re long since past the point of no return
Hurtling to the depths of hell goes the garden of Eden
Too laden with sweet profit to keep itself afloat

Human Banquet
03:30
|
|||
A nauseous stench fills the air
The atmosphere reeks of decay
Fleshless hands claw at my leg
Bone fingers tear at my skin
Begging for sanctuary
Or pulling me down
Kick out, smashing of skulls
Their bones shatter so easily
A morsel of food lies exposed
And deranged men fight to eat
And upon high, watching, waiting
With one swoop catches the carrion
The crow flies back to its perch
And feast upon its prize
Hungry hands grasp for the food
Human teeth sink into human flesh
There was beauty, once strength in our unity
But we let it slip through our fingers
When we first fought for the fat of the land
Now like animals, we fight for carrion
Now disfigured, so weak in our division
Greedily, we tear at each other's throats
Gorging at the human banquet
It becomes harder to breathe as the stench envelops all.
FEED
Cries of “UNCLEAN” once filled the air
Till all became diseased
The body piles grew in size
As kin refused to bury kin
And as the plants began to die
We turned to each other for food
Head to one side, watching, waiting
The crow squawks as another man dies
Muscley flesh will make a good meal

Crack of dawn and I arise
Cock-crow; drudgery calls
Morning light upon my bed of straw
Brushing the straw from my rags
Tightening the leather thongs
The cold metal bar between the straps
An ankle brace, restricts my movement
Yet, the only way to stand on my own two feet
A flashback of past cracking of bones
The only birthright that is ours
For the masters to break our minds in
Tear apart our ankle bones, stop us from running
Pledge allegiance to your master
As he squeezes the spirit from your soul
Pledge allegiance to your lord
Your birthright to subservience
Scared, so fucking scared
Bound hand and foot by fear
Tied to the stake of your own passivity
The bracken at your feet
You’re just waiting for the fire
The final burning of your soul
I stagger to the door;
A makeshift board against a hole
Gaze towards sunrise
But the morning mist obscures my view
The cracking whip rings in my ears
The slave master calls
Weals of rotting flesh ripple my back
A brand of my allegiance
Contemptuously gaze at the masters
Their minds forever in bondage
The privileged few who deny my freedom
I’ll sit and bide my time
Play their game for now
I demand a pound of your flesh
A POUND OF YOUR FLESH

Possession prayer
02:30

CRUCIFY…
Our masters who art in heaven
Worshipped by thy name
Thy kingdom is not ours
Thy will must be done
For we have no will of our own
For on earth we must await heaven
Have you accepted your daily bread
Have you chewed upon the lies that hide the pain
Forgive God trespassing your mind
For we may not trespass his
Tread the weary path, blinkered
And deliver us to blind acceptance
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory
AMEN

Scarecrow

Alone; just the night for company
Tattered man with just memories
A corpse staked out for all to see
Tormented martyr
Silent whisper echoes across the fields
“What is it like to be dead?”
Screams the man on the stake
“What’s it like, world...to be dead?”
The old oak draws it’s branches away
The birds will not rest on its arms
As he rots, slowly but surely
And with him takes the world itself
The crops grow, food for plenty
But the virus out stretches its arms
He drains the lifeblood
And crop withers and dies
Beasts of carrion, smell the meat
And circle close by, then venture near
He smiles a tormented, twisted smile
Laughs at the rotting corpse of humanity

Cancer Spreading
02:55
|

Crippled for life, a living death
Lonely life, fed with deceit
Deceived from birth, diseased till death
Silence child, don’t offer a sound
The diseased walk in ranks of many
Cannon fodder
The blind lead the blind to the final resting place
Nurture the cancer
Searing pain, malignancy
Devouring all
Your will has gone, the cancer developed
The plague will silence your very dreams
Muscle seizure, paralysing agony
Blood starts clotting, vision is blurred
Impending death, from inherited mania
Silently waiting, the time is near
You feed the cancer
Oblivious to its growth
The tumour rips open
Envelopes the earth

Distance

Unidentified remains of a human corpse
Lay rotting upon the sitting room floor
Heroic failure to an unknown cause
The squaddy laughs with nervous tension
The gun in his hand still warm from use
A nagging in his brain “Why did I do it?”
Alone in the house he puts the gun to his head
A distant scream
Neat and tidy, the housework must be done
Normality concludes, nothing out of place
Darkness all around; bricked up windows
A candle glow illuminates the room
A single flame in the blind room
But the candle slowly burns itself out
Waxwork dummies sit and view the tv screen
A distant scream still echoes from outside
I want to be on my own, away from you
You want to be on your own, away from me
It’s so hard to open my heart to you
I tried to but this world forbade me
I dreamt a nightmare of togetherness
When the walls came tumbling down
I awoke, relieved, the house still intact
A distant scream, the world carries on
Shut behind closed doors; the outside is hostile
I heard a laugh, or a cry of pain
At night I toss and turn
Outside, a snivelling wretch calls for his mother
Draw the curtains over the brickwork
Make sure my cell is locked tight
A slit of light, blocked it out
Hide from the light
At the end of the street, locked out of sight
In the darkest living room; a crimson shade
The candle burnt out so very long ago
Unknown to the bricked up silent millions
Unidentified remains of a human corpse
Lay rotting upon the sitting room floor
Heroic failure to an unknown cause,
AND NOBODY CARED

War machine
05:50
|

Political engines grind into action
Fuelled with blood of hate and greed
Clash of steel; piston heads pump
Rev the engine at crisis point
The wheels are in motion
The lunatic cackle of the driver
Onward, once more, at God’s will
The war machine thunders forth
Mindless, mechanical reaper
Bodies twisted in it’s iron shell
Sucking up life, butchering
The heat rising, molten, savage end
Forward unto the holocaust
Open her up, accelerate
Spit out corpse waste product
Exhaust blocked with bubbling flesh
FORWARD UNTO THE HOLOCAUST
Mammoth machine gone berserk
No taming: escalation
The creature has bolted
Foreseen, yet ignored
The leash is broken
Maniacal, run off the rails
Too late for regret
The controllers flee
Out of control
CARNAGE - GENOCIDE
SLAUGHTER - DECIMATION
WAR MACHINE
Metal jaws pulverise your dreams
The monster spits out your future
Harvesting the battlefield
Young, ripe, fresh for the plucking
A legacy; reopened old wounds
Listen to the voices from the past
THE WHEELS ARE IN MOTION
DO NOT MEDDLE WITH THAT WHICH YOU CANNOT CONTROL
