Casket Case
White coffin
Now black with mold
I've grown dark
Rotten and cold
Sour ground
Stinking of decay
Six feet underground
This is where I will stay
Flesh slipping
Grime and bone
Buried deep
Beneath a tombstone
Now black with mold
I've grown dark
Rotten and cold
Sour ground
Stinking of decay
Six feet underground
This is where I will stay
Flesh slipping
Grime and bone
Buried deep
Beneath a tombstone

Contamination.
Yes! Absorb filth from My planted seeds.
Flowing smoothly
Through dark paths
Unknown valley
Of the once....pure soul.

Dreaming of Heaven
How nice would it be to die tonight?
To go ahead and meet God tonight.
To finally take control of my life
And say goodbye to everything with my knife.
To go ahead and meet God tonight.
To finally take control of my life
And say goodbye to everything with my knife.

Savior
I thought you'd be different.
I thought you'd be my savior.
You're an altar ego of my enemies and I am no longer safe.

Stillborn
Mournings on the horizon
Overearly death to
humble us again
How could we have been
fooled?
The illusion of perfection
in this life
Overearly death to
humble us again
How could we have been
fooled?
The illusion of perfection
in this life

Milan
In this city of the living
trapped with the dead
who don't talk
now but memories
they walk the walk
like zombies, in Milan
trapped with the dead
who don't talk
now but memories
they walk the walk
like zombies, in Milan

Ritual of the Outcast
Outcast is lost
Inside of himself
He wants to drink
the Loner's blood
But the Loner
must die
In order for the
outcast to
drink the
Loner's blood
To give him
Peace of Mind
Inside of himself
He wants to drink
the Loner's blood
But the Loner
must die
In order for the
outcast to
drink the
Loner's blood
To give him
Peace of Mind
