FLESH FAREWELL

FLESH FAREWELL

At the festival we feast
eating the meat of the deceased beast
consuming the rapture of ruptured deceit
as we fester at its fleeting feet

We knell the bell and yell
FLESH FAREWELL

At the masquerade we cease to be
and meet to release faint obscurity
and present ourselves as we will to be
fantasy between you and me

We knell the bell and yell
FLESH FAREWELL

At the carnival we eat and are eaten
beaten down clowns with a frown in defeat
caricatures of us all within the halls of HELL
faintly crying as our souls are dying

We knell the bell and yell
FLESH FAREWELL
flesh farewell
