1. Intro (Stew of Wounds)
2. Body Scaffold
3. Filofucked
4. Hardened In Sin
1. Intro (Stew of Wounds)
I will do such things
What they are yet I know not
But they shall be…
The terrors of the earth
(From “King Lear”)
2. Body Scaffold
My cross to bear – to be alive
I killed them all – just to survive
A monster lies in wait for me – a stew of wounds and misery
But fiercer still in life and limb – the me that lies in wait in him
The shifting lord – calls me with my hidden name
His rasping breath – hits my skin and turns to flame
A thousand snakes – hiss and writhe inside my brain
The beast of horns – a part of me you’ll never tame
Let mind and soul give way to blood and drown myself within the flood
My essence shall be free to roam, escape at last this cage of bone
I’m favoured with his mother’s milk, caress my throat like sheerest silk
The bitter sweetness laced with sleep, I taste the stench – be brave – drink deep
The shifting lord – calls me with my hidden name
His rasping breath – hits my skin and turns to flame
A thousand snakes – hiss and writhe inside my brain
The beast of horns – a part of me you’ll never tame
My body scaffold is now destroyed, by sons of jackals here employed
Hate and pain and flesh gone mad, inside beyond a fear so sad
What was within is now without, yet still I hide one nagging doubt
To love with devils, must one try, to gorify the human lie?
Keep sweetness from me – the gurgling bare, the simpering miss
Bring me monsters – spitting venom into cribs, then – I shall rest – easy
The shifting lord – calls me with my hidden name
His rasping breath – hits my skin and turns to flame
A thousand snakes – hiss and writhe inside my brain
The beast of horns – a part of me you’ll never tame
Content am I, my thoughts affirmed, that man is nought but foetid sperm
And take good heed, unless you burn, this body is but food for worms
3. Filofucked
Dressed to kill – you look successful
Wear a suit – with pride
Convinced at last – you’re moving upwards
Don’t push – against tide
Your sympathy’s with money, not the people around you
Should have bought imagination but you never had the time to
Not impressed with ideas that seem to be new
As long as the cash pile grew and grew
What have you got – ill gotten earnings
Bulging wallet – stocks and shares
No friends – but a credit rating
In the end – who cares?
So now you’re dead – a blank statistic
A stress induced – quick end
You floated through life – on cards of plastic
Say goodbye to your flexible friend
Your sympathy’s with money, not the people around you
Should have bought imagination but you never had the time to
Not impressed with ideas that seem to be new
As long as the cash pile grew and grew
Ever wonder what was going on, have you ever looked
Inspiration shot its load at you but you ducked
Did you take pleasure in the bosses’ dicks that you sucked
They won’t help you now because you are filofucked
4. Hardened In Sin
Creations of a dark mind – we are the human race
Conceited and destructive – fallen from God’s grace
There is no hope of rescue – this time it is too late
Excluded from salvation – we are Reprobate
Hardened in sin and we are to blame – rejected by God, oh ain’t that a shame
Choke at his judgement, draw your last breath
Like lambs to the slaughter we crawl to our death
Die for Reprobate – a demon seed that will germinate
Die for Reprobate – from the holy path you will deviate
An obsessive taste for violence – craving gory news
Laughing at the carnage – agreeing with the views
Of the narrow-minded leaders that we all love to hate
Excluded from salvation – we are Reprobate
Hardened in sin and we are to blame – rejected by God, oh ain’t that a shame
Choke at his judgement, draw your last breath
Like lambs to the slaughter we crawl to our death
Die for Reprobate – your petty laws we violate
Die for Reprobate – against your ways we demonstrate
So praise be to the lord – who loves his stupid herd
That worship him and trust in his never spoken word
He’s fucked off back to heaven and left us to our fate
And the demons look on laughing – we are Reprobate
Hardened in sin and we are to blame – rejected by God, oh ain’t that a shame
Choke at his judgement, draw your last breath
Like lambs to the slaughter we crawl to our death
Die for Reprobate – the virgin whore we penetrate
Die for Reprobate – your saviours temples we desecrate
Die for Reprobate – civilization you annihilate
Die for Reprobate – the death of the planet…
…AND YOU JUST CAN’T WAIT
