Adapt and Die

I'm a maggot
Stuck in its larval stage
I slither throughout the dead meat
In which my egg was laid
I crawl from compulsion
through this endless, putrid mire
Until I'm worn out
And then I get to die
This life
is a chrysalis
The birth canal
of a higher purpose
I've become sick
Fucking sick of myself
As time drags on
I've become just as sick of everything else
This life
is a chrysalis
The birth canal
of a higher purpose
I'll transcend
This world
This body
This spirit
This mind
It's all here to be left behind

Night of the Leech
04:31
|

|
My body never got me
My brain never made peace with the rest
The left leg snuck onto the body
of a developing fetus
A parasitic leech
orally attached to my knee
But enough's enough, now it's coming off
That poor excuse for a limb
Cut the flesh
Saw the bone
Trash the leg
The deed is done
The bleeding stump beneath my knee
Is the embodiment of beauty
Me minus an extremity
Finally, my body is complete
Cut the flesh
Saw the bone
Trash the leg
The deed is done
Then I feel
my exposed
flesh tickling
I see toes
growing
like boils with nails
That fucking leg
Grows back again
Another reptilian deceit
My body continues to mock me
I cut and slash
at my vomiting calf, but alas
My knee shits out legs
It is incontinent
I should just cut it out
And cut off the head

Omnipotence
02:03
|
|||
|
A little introspection
A little self-rejection
A bunch of shitty ideas
In a sewage station
A perpetual grind
A habitual fight
With fatalistic defeatists
on either side
I masturbate
to my impotence
A new predictable thought
The same old predictable words
Logs thrown on a fire
which refuses to burn
Searching hurts
The futility's worse
At least I can enjoy
Watching myself squirm
I masturbate
to my impotence

From Ashed to Abuse

Alive
You rise
From the ashes of the last time
You expired
When you first saw me
You knew I was trouble
That suits you just fine
Because you love to suffer
Tear out your feathers
break your wings
When they've healed
You'll be back again
When I spit
in your face
I do it
for your sake
Let my fists fall upon you
like rain after a drought
Let my fists fall
like the teeth from your mouth
Rehabilitated and back from the ashes
Your new flesh is aching for gashes
You're at your best when I'm at my worst
Everything looks better when your eyes are bruised shut
Like a moth to the flame
Like a fly to shit
Your face is attracted
To my clenched fist
I'll shower you in gasoline and
fling a match at you once more
Water you like a flower
as I piss upon your corpse
You'll blossom from your burnt remains
and return to my scold
Back to the safety
of my chokehold

My womb laid barren
My purpose extinct
All seems futile
And so it begins
I saw you prancing
down the street
Shamelessly displaying
your pregnancy
Filthy whore
You'll get yours
Silent like a corpse
I follow you like a shadow
I'm right behind you all the way
All the way home
I sneak into your house
Armed with scissors and knives
Tie you to your bed
And with one slice
I cut you open
and take the fetus out
You are the surrogate
my baby always wanted
You are the surrogate
my baby always wanted
My sepulchral uterus hungers for its flesh
I feed it to the bottomless, gaping mouth between my legs
