Watch Me Drop Four to six feet and I’ll be closer to rot As my legs dangle Twitching ankles Take me to the top With a short trip And a quick stop Finally at the end of my rope Now help me tie the knot I feel them tugging from below Safely pull me closer In embrace of the unknown Chains of life now meet with locks of death Anxiously burying myself As I'm enveloped beneath the stress I hear the whispers and the laughter Insidious piercing thoughts Mischievous lies spilt in my Blighted ears They bade me sit here, think here Feel there, drink there Lie to me, die with me Gnawing every moment at the back of my skull Pleading with me begging from the gallows to fall The disembodied wish me closer to be Requested simply no dishonor to me How truly fitting and an honor to see Suspension of the body Animated soul free Now sat in the darkness and shadows of my seclusion Utterly bereft of desire to avoid my own conclusion Theories adhere to me quickly as visions appear to me My laughter it echoes While blood drips down fingers Clenched hold of this haunting And frayed symbol of my end They may speak softly They may speak fervently Orations persuading me listlessly to my ruin They may speak quietly They argue relentlessly Pervasively sneaking through self reflection Tie the knot Watch me drop Feeling the weight from my shoulders As I separate the neck Tie the knot Watch me rot Feeling my soul fade past As I make peace with my death As I make peace with my death Death Death Death As I make peace with my death Death Death Death Every foot brings me closer to rot Every moment brings me closer to drop Every twitch brings me closer to rot My very last breath brought me closer to rot Their soundless whispers bring me closer to rot Their scratching claws bring me closer to rot Their heavy hands bring me closer to rot Eternal darkness brought me closer to drop Close to rot Close to dead Close to drop Close to dead Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot Four to six feet And I’ll be closer to rot

I dream Of flowing red Beneath me I see The glow of beyond It calls me I seek a shallow pit Fit for the opportunist in me Stalking scheming Select blades With which I write Down crimson limbs Barely even sleeping any longer Night after night Creeping sneaking Destitute and somber Awaken drenched Horrid stench Haven’t washed my shirt Still covered wet Tears red and sweat Remind myself Between the whispers And the visions Bring glory to the idol I may understand true wisdom Red flowing To the waterfall Of eternity Spilling forth Life within your limbs May it carry away Cleanse you of your sins Red flowing To the waterfall May it carry away Cleanse you of your sins I dream When I awake Compulsive urges Haunt me endlessly They taunt me Make my visions fruition Til I collapse again Covered In red Til I collapse again Covered In red Til I collapse again I am ready to receive My eternal awakening Crimson I seek a shallow pit fit for the opportunist in me Blade Stalking scheming select blades With which I write down crimson limbs Down Barely even sleeping any longer Limb Night after night creeping sneaking Destitute and somber As I collapse again I am carried by the warm red Flowing beneath me Though my eyes close They eternally open Free to ponder the eons For bringing glory to the Idol My idol Hunting and stalking the streets Now flow red for my Idol My idol Carried eternally now I’m submerged in the Red Everything forever Red As I collapse again I’m Red Beneath me always flowing Red The words they always whisper Down Down It drips it pours it flows Down down Flowing red Down Down It drips it pours it flows Down down Flowing red Flowing red beneath me Flowing red beneath me Flowing red beneath me Flowing red beneath me

The lair Many mouths The lair Many mouths The crown is set upon the throne of eternal mastication Gnawed remains and flesh litter floors of the delegation Court of fools is now in session Judgment of the poor balanced by famished indiscretion The hunger it waxes and wanes Earthquake starvation pains Speak truth as its written in bloodstains Generations extolling this kings reign Feast The lair of the beast of many mouths You’ve stumbled upon The beast of many mouths Throne of eternal mastication Fetid stench Rot and death fills the air As the humid breath Reminds of your despair Fetid stench Bits of rotting flesh The scent of lies and fear You’ll find no monarch here Flesh, blood Guts, pus Bones, skin, and teeth Reminders of the liars left upon the floor Dripping from the ceiling visceral deceit Humans Liars Their only use in death Feeding corporeal form They find they’ve wasted breath Humans Disgusting Beseeching and begging for life Sacrifice daughters and sons Deliciously ending their plight The lair of the beast of many mouths Generations they have filled my gut Their king a puppet Yet no hint of doubt Speak truth In this hall of bloodstains They beg for health But yet no pity remains No pity remains No pity remains The lair Many mouths The lair Many mouths The lair Feed me Many mouths The lair Feed me Many mouths

Loss of Love 04:41
Despondently I walk Through these lonely and filth ridden streets I never imagined To feel lower than this What remains of my love Memories of blood soaked sheets We were meant to be together at the end Our spirits joined forever May we eternally descend Elated I revealed My great and gleaming grin Last beats of my lover's heart As the bloodshed begins As your lips grow cold And the fear leaves your eyes Tears run down my face I witness your death born smile Sands begin to pass The hour of rot is within hand With this same quick motion Begins the slicing I had planned Ritualistic sacrifice of the lovers two One hour begins the death Now you must see it through Perception of your spirits intertwined Red ribboned deadly divine Decay in decadence sublime Two bodies Sliced four each Eightfold is the offering My realm you reach Where are you now I thought we had escaped this fever dream Are we falling down Searching for you, but I can’t hear you scream Where are you now I cannot see you am I fool to the obscene Are we falling down Then I awake ashamed in miserable defeat What has gone wrong How do I remain I awaken pained weak deathless Lost and riddled with shame Everlasting love replaced by everlasting sorrow Eyes white limp body draped in black Now I weep on the lightless morrow Twas the two of us to be With this knife made three Our ritual of forever Now a deep longing for thee Never again will I greet you Spirit lost to the shadows With luck and chance that I glimpse you Under the dark of the gallows Where are you now I thought we had escaped this fever dream Are we falling down Searching for you, but I can’t hear you scream Where are you now I cannot see you am I fool to the obscene Are we falling down Then I awake ashamed in miserable defeat This pact Eightfold the offering Join in sacrifice True love your death may bring All I require to Cut true with blade unwavering Complete my ritual Before chimes of morrow bells ring As the hour began the sand flowed Once the knife began she ran cold But my hand began to tremble as my will lost its hold And my cut was not enough Just one below the eightfold Loss of love Watch and weep as she is fading and floating away Loss of love Wallow in your failure to this lonely life you are now chained Where are you now I thought we had escaped this fever dream Are we falling down Searching for you, but I can’t hear you scream Where are you now I cannot see you am I fool to the obscene Are we falling down Then I awake ashamed in miserable defeat

Teethchewer 03:28
My favorite sounds Are a final breath And the clink of a coin The last beat of a heart The agony of death A heavy purse acquires results No need to narrate No explanations necessary There’ll be no delays Demeanor is calm Yet I'm excited within Not with a smirk or a grin Do you see this beautiful smile? No longer can I hold it in Additions to my list Breaking up the digits just like twigs Plucking and popping the pieces From their sockets Filling the coffers As I make a deposit I think my smile now Deserves a higher status Bone might be beautiful But metal now makes it magic Watch it gleam while I grin Salivating satisfaction now begins Crunching teeth within my metal jaw Cleaning meat from the bones that I now gnaw Who knew what little treats your mouth was hiding No need for the gold Now these bodies provide me Hunt to feed Slaughter to sustain me No longer killing to making a living Just killing living in glorious sin With all these bodies piling up I am engorged they’re filling up my gut Compelled to consume Forever chewing on teeth here in my tomb Teethchewer Man of blood and gold I live for the cracking of bones The shattering of teeth I dream of eruptions of blood Of rivers red and deep My hunger grows Give me more Just another piece Another taste I cannot wait to eat The next scrap of my feast Devour completely But savor The teeth They call me Teethchewer Man of blood and gold

I can sense the weary heart By its treads The weight of wandering Ceaseless it may seem I know of a place That you may rest your head Below the boughs you may dream Delirious hunger clouds the vision Behold the bounties that this grove will bring Follow me just a few more paces Last surge of strength within Now your heartbeat races It cannot be true This sight you see Claw at your bloodshot eyes Revealing the feast of a lowborn king Wretched who wanders in exile Below my boughs you dream Wretched one plump in his excess Fed full now wanting of nothing Satiated mass Trembling Heave all you might Thouroughly I am embedded within Drink of my root I delight in your suffering Your actions no longer your own Motioned as branches you dance and you swing Dance Swing A final chance at life Cursed into motion Til death it may bring Move Sway Dance Swing Wretched who wanders in exile Below my boughs you dream Wretched one plump in his excess Cursed into motion Til death it may bring Til death Til death It may bring Pluck out the eyes Nothing to see Place on the tongue Imbibe with relief Peel at the skin Fleshlessly wreathed The motions slow Transformation is reached No longer must you wander From my roots you may drink

Why must my vision fail me Upon this canvas of flesh I paint A realm beyond this world awaits New mixtures to create Blood, pus, and marrow Strewn across the gallery Bits of body parts and human refuse Every rotten piece which I can find a use Each stroke of the brush brings clarity divine Again my artistic grandeur brings upon the sublime Witness this beautiful visage The portrait of decay Bones and flesh are ground together Adding in the tears of the weak Saturated hues and pigments From my unholy technique Recreating this wonderful vision Feeling of eternal warmth Perfect the palette I am reborn Awake in a womb of rot Have I been here forever Is this the realm I have longed Yet now does the vision fade Minutes passing as seconds Where’s the feeling I crave Blurs contorting in front of me No longer compulsion could fade away Short lived twisting back to reality Again I prepare my palette My fundamentals not adequate Surely my humors suffice A final mixture of pigments precise As the hair mark the canvas Fevered and delirious I strike Life pools on the floor at my feet My masterpiece it beckons the knife The vision no longer fades As my body goes gray I find myself drifting away Into this portrait of decay Portrait of decay Is this what I longed for Decay Rot but not fade away Eternal Solace and ecstasy My life on the Floor right in front of me This canvas of flesh My canvas of flesh Bones and flesh ground together Add in the tears of the weak Saturated hues and pigments From my unholy technique Recreating this vision Feeling eternal warmth Perfect the palette I am reborn

Malodorous 03:18
Twas I Born of the mud Basking in filth True drinker of sludge Malodorous reprobate Bringer of shame Found eternal solitude I whisper your name Rot Following the whispers And a horrid screeching tone Manifesting creations Of vicious fornication Wicked slaughter in the Mind and the degenerate soul How could one Seek to punish Those lost to the light Of your villainous depravity Willfully basking In the Excrement and viscera Without an understanding of the Will behind the massacre Atrocious Disgusting Mephitic malcontent Repulsive Displeasing Regurgitation guaranteed Witnessing the putrid frame Coupled by the burning at the nostrils Crippling nausea makes Retaliation futile Relent as you’re reduced To the fundamentals Treasured substances Excrement viscera And necessary essences Excrement Viscera Saturate my figure Leave me pustulant and fetid Humours Eternal Combined and enshrined within The screech becomes a song The screech becomes a song The screech becomes a song Befoul me Before thee My flesh begins to ripen Plump with pus I am enlightened Tenderized And moisturized My slough becomes the idol I ascend Devoted acolyte Bear witness And weep Witness my putrid frame Inhale my ripened odor Choke as you attempt your final lamentations Vomit fills your throat As you achieve the true perception Excrement Viscera Flesh becoming ripe Plump with pus I see the light Tenderized And moisturized Embodiment of filth I descend Devoted acolyte Born of the mud

It began as a whisper Then a song A dreaded lamentation Cacophony of all of my wrongs The allure of the deep The only respite I receive The silence surrounds me As I slip under the surface Beginning to breathe Choking as the silence surrounds me Leadened I am slipping away Carried beneath the waves I ascend What trick is at play Pulled up to the surface the cacophony remains Whos hand in stay of execution must I lay blame I didn't ask for this You see yourself a savior I see my ended bliss I want no resting place No burial ground Only to slip below and never be found My memories are pain No will to persist Ashore again Breath of life I must resist I long For the silence Will you follow me down Plunging to the depths below Its icy cold is all I ever wish to know Silence as I inhale the ocean As the pressure builds my frame begins to fold The pressures build Eyes bulge under the weight that surrounds me My lungs now filled Gracious acceptance of what I could never be I’ve no need for this earthly life Renounced, resigned All that's required is to end this strife I have finally reached my closing divine With a deep breath of the ocean I heave a sigh of relief The silence surrounds me The allure of the deep

Night after night Perform rituals With no end in sight Without a question or understanding of The toll it takes on the end of life Peasants requesting knowledge of beyond Longing for peace of lovers and their second sons A hefty price to pay to ease their mind But not the weight of gold That keeps me up at night Lost spectres and souls Clawing back from death to their homes Nightly I’m taunted Beckoned and begging for life By the haunted Upon this night now Something is different Awaken cold and breathless Visions burned beneath the eyelids New incantations Relentlessly echoing endlessly Wails of the dead now muted by a new unholy tune Awaken Conduit of the damned I speak through you Unlocking the visions of the world anew Relinquish control Recite the prayer of twisting tongues Become the key Unlocking the realm of the rotten one Awaken Awaken Five severed hands Placed about the limbs and the neck His sigil in obsidian sands Now witness the eternity of rot Now witness the eternity of rot Now witness Eternity of rot Horrors of the mind Beasts of reality Fables and myths now Reaching right back at me Screams and cries heard from both sides Collision of worlds As the conduit awakens Relinquish control Recite the prayer of twisting tongues Become the key Unlocking the realm of the rotten one Five severed hands Placed about the limbs and the neck His sigil in obsidian sands Now witness the eternity of rot Awaken Now witness the eternity of rot Awaken Now witness the Eternity of rot
