Apex Lyrics

bury them all beneath heaping shovel fulls of lime
in shallow graves the shreds of flesh dissolve with time
the stench of burning human flesh, a makeshift cremation
a shriveling fragment of death's grand design

i insist -- the pleasure's all mine

with orgasmic bliss the human body is consumed
the loins are charred, the slabs of mean cut off and ground
with zeal i dine upon the skin, enthralled with elation
souls of my victims within me, entombed

palette wet with atrocity
i relish the last look in your eyes
clutching your intestines, your scream echoes through me
perfection; a murder divine

i hold the secrets of the dead within my grasp
as i poke and prod, your precious world is painted black I the controled of
your fate, a twisted creation
until i've met my fancy i'll hammer and hack
palette wet with atrocity
i relish the last look in your eyes

as i'm blissfully showered in blood
i shake with violent rapture as i gaze at my delicious feast
i cannot stop my salivation
my addiction to murder has peaked
kneel only to my sick fixations
a complete symphony of your screams

oh the cruelty of death
i wield infinite

lured by the cries of your damnation
i collect ornaments of the dead
skin tingling with anticipation
i sever the last victim's head to be put on display

this mortal coil has born unto me death's secrets
this forensic inquisition, orgasmic
another trophy of my bloodied psychosis
another body to mangle; to ravage and explore

palette wet with atrocity
i relish the last look in your eyes
clutching your intestines, your scream echoes through me
perfection; a murder divine

Ah. This is a great song. Probably my favorite BDM song. Seems like its about Cannibalism and Murder.

It's pretty apparent what this song is about. Killing people and such or something along those lines. And, the talking bit that follows the music is rather creepy. Especially when you listen to what he is saying. Too bad that isn't posted here. It tells you how to decaptiate and de-limb a body. Hmmm....

yeah dude the freakyass speaking part is actually like a chapter out of this one book, something like The Art of Preparing and Eating the Human Body. haha seems appropriate for this song. if anyone wants to see the book theres a link at the bottom of the page of this song at Darklyrics.com

Close, but the end goes like this: When the bleeding slows, preparation for decapitation can be started. Continue the cut to the throat around the entire neck, from the jawline to the back of the skull. Once muscle and ligament have been sliced away, the head can be cleanly removed by gripping it on either side and twisting it off, separation occurring where the spinal cord meets the skull. This is indicative of the method to be used for dividing other bones or joints, in that the meat should generally be cut through first with a knife, and the exposed bone then separated with a saw or cleaver. The merits of keeping the skull as a trophy are debatable for two principal reasons. First, a human skull may call suspicious attention to the new owner. Secondly, thorough cleaning is difficult due to the large brain mass, which is hard to remove without opening the skull. The brain is not good to eat. Removing the tongue and eyes, skinning the head, and placing it outside in a wire cage may be effective. The cage allows small scavengers such as ants and maggots to cleanse the flesh from the bones, while preventing it being carried off by larger scavengers, such as dogs and children. After a sufficient period of time, you may retrieve the skull and boil it in a dilute bleach solution to sterilize it and wash away any remaining tissue

The outro is an excerpt from a book, essentially a cannibal's cookbook. It's a real piece of literature, pretty interesting at that. I believe it's called "Butchering the human carcass for human consumption" or something like that.

Anyways, the song is about desecration, dissection, and consuming of the dead, apparently killed by the gourmet himself. The album begins with several excerpts from the book as well.
