lyrics

This must be hell
For no god could allow such horror
The smell of death envelops me
Festering, contorted remnants of a human being
Shattered and scattered to the void
Without relent, into damnation I descend
The sacrifice of man begins

Distorted features describe moments of pure agony
But somewhere deep inside these hollow eyes I see relief
An escape from the suffering that carved their shallow graves
Yet to the mud and maggots their penance is repaid in vain

Deeper I fall, until all hope is lost
Lusting a crimson kiss that's quick and merciful
In the abyss, beneath the weight of total darkness
All faith decays among the waste
Bring an end to this excruciating existence
Some solace in the silence of oblivion

Take me away from this unending misery
And give my flesh to the maggots so that my mind may finally be set free

Underneath the blackened sky
I see the maggots come to life
Beneath the mud they feed upon
The charred remains and carrion

The bile burns as I expel
The final part of me that felt
And though my heart still beats in time
A part of me will die here beside you

Necronomichrist produces well crafted chaos that exceeds the ambiguity of mass produced metal and yields their unmistakable sound of excellence in anguish ... more
