Misericord – Everglade lyrics

After all these years
We still don't have a clue
In the mortuary of life
Consciously placed on the slab of you
Writhing in agony the beast that endears
On the wings of sin that took flight and flew

Survival of the fittest, the joke of the week
Humanity's kitchen, the larder we raid
The foul stench of extinction, the cruelty we wreak
Knife of unethic cleansing, we kiss the blade

Nothing is forever, yet always today
Speechless are the words that I have to say

The crossed lines, the way that we speak
With tools of tragedy we'll ply our trade
Hunting with crossed eyes, the way that we seek
Endangering the species that we have made.

Survival of the fittest, the joke of the week
Humanity's kitchen, the larder we raid
The foul stench of extinction, the cruelty we wreak
Knife of unethic cleansing, we kiss the blade.

As life disinherits the meek
We'll bury them in annihilation.

Dying for never, to see today
Lifeless are the words that I have to pray.

Survival of the fittest, the joke of the week
Humanity's kitchen, the larder we raid.
The foul stench of extinction, the cruelty we wreak
Knife of unethic cleansing, we kiss the blade,
and bury them in annihilation everglade.
