Alive and Rotting Lyrics


(Intro solo-Tufts)

They stand breathing but never alive

Their eyes are wide but they don't see

Their eyeless faces stare back at me

Desperately clinging to death's outstretching hand

Looking for escape only to find dead ends

The need is greater than you

All of you

Fulfill the need to consume

To sacrifice the mind

Blinded, guiltless, taking but never

Giving the mind, a sacrificial whore

Allow me to express my disgust for you

Alive and rotting, seething and begging for more

Begging for more of a dependency

To inject more suffering

Corroded is thee

Desperately clinging to death's outstretching hand

Looking for escape only to find dead ends

It's greater than you

Killing you

Your reflection fades

Unrecognizable to familiar eyes
