EXHUMED lyrics : "Death Knell"

Purulent portents augur decrepit demise
A tumescent terminus draws near
Sloughing skin, boils erupt before your very eyes

Carbuncles and lesions appear
Wracked with infection - excruciated
An affliction which will not abate

Eczemic flesh stripped away - excoriated
A fetid, disease-ridden fate
Moribund, vomiting blood

All over the hospital floor
Not long for this earth, it only gets worse
Physiognomy ridden with sores

Rendered grotesque, thorax fills with cess
Suffering until your demise
Corrode from within, sepsis sets in

Innards begin to liquefy
Too late, face fate- Await, death's gate
Sound the death knell - Sound the death knell

Overripe omens ooze out of your maw
Excrescent expectorate expunged
Sallowed skin, blistered and raw

Hacking up bits of clot-caked gunge
Riddled with welts - suppurated
Day by day this decay sprays it's filth

Drain the pus into pans - intubated
Discharging bloody, pyomorphic swill
Feculent, purulent

Rampant infection now grown out of hand
Nauseated, expectorated
Bits of innards floating in your bedpan

Too late, face fate- Await, death's gate
Sound the death knell - Sound the death knell


[Lead - Wes]

Disgusting yourself, you turn inside out

Epidermal revulsion takes hold
Prognosis is grim, there can no more doubt
You're soon to be stiff, dead and cold

Vital organs spew forth - regurgitated
Prolapse of bowels, sinew and crud
Sanguineous breath - asphyxiated

Esophagus torn, drown in your own blood
Violent death, terminal breath
The hospital bed now a gore-soaked grave

Your execrable corpse, taken down to the morgue
Fodder for pathologists depraved
Too late, face fate- Await, death's gate

Sound the death knell - Sound the death knell
