Shrouded by this mortal veil, something has gone wrong |
|
Engaging conscious thought, though we are dead gone |
|
A new beginning to the physiological |
|
But as we decompose, the pain is unbearable |
|
Cellular dissolution, structures in decay |
|
Our systems in disarray |
|
Glistening lividity on exfodiating skin |
|
Living decomposition |
|
From beyond the pale, we survive |
|
The pain of being dead alive |
|
Eyeballs exssicate |
|
As moisture dissipates |
|
The epidermis shrinks |
|
As a countenance sinks |
|
No marrow left to slake |
|
Dried bones as they break |
|
Muscles liquify |
|
As the skelature is nullified (solo: "The Living Dead" by S.C. McGrath) |
|
The abdomen distends |
|
With noxious gasses that offend (solo: "Life After Death" by J. Kocol) |
|
Organs dessicate |
|
A foul odor we execrate (solo: "Return of the Living Dead" by S.C. McGrath) |
|
Four disparate minds converge on one theorem |
|
Merits were to be had for our death-defying serum |
|
Decomposing and gutted, our existence it prolonged |
|
Though we have died, still we live on |
|
Post-mortem torturing, immortal suffering |
|
Pain receptors functioning |
|
Prone amongst detritus without ambulation |
|
No tomb, no rest, no supplication |
|
We suffer while our nervous systems thrive |
|
The pain of being dead alive |
|
We never wanted to revive |
|
The pain of being dead alive |
