lyrics

The meat sickness is bent upon him now
It's time for me to breed
And as he sleeps with vomit as a pillow
His mouth recites the creed
The smell of latrines and blood Vaseline
Clings to his chin with the languor of sin
Sodden with gin, he is rotting within
Touch of gangrene, if you know what I mean?
Natural host for my seed
Broken man,
Open wide!
Join the clan
Harbor my offspring with pride
Losing hand
And I hope you understand
Life feeds upon life
Listen to the sound of the ascension
The choir beneath the skin
Focus, if you will, your full attention
Let the miracle begin
All my eggs bursting deep
Cradled in the dark heat
Ripe homunculi weep
As they tear through the meat
Out into the night
Ready for the flight
Buzzing in a swarm
To feel their might
The sirens wail above the shrill staccato
Of crack babies in plight
Lured by their percussive ostinato
I will make things right
For I am legion
Hidden , out of sight
