Festering In The Crypt Lyrics
Eyes tied tight forever
Mouth wired shut forever
Body parts dissever. You will see no more
Never....
Lowered into the ground
You will never hear another sound
In your coffin you are bound. Underground
Forever
To the earth you're now enslaved, to the creatures long depraved
Flesh has now turned to gray, as the larvae gnaw away
As you rot in your smallish tomb, insects care not how you met your doom
In your casket eternally lie. Many were pleased to see you die
Fester
In the
Crypt where
You lie
Victims
Pass by
They watched
You die
Flesh melts off of your frame. Infamous was your name
Years passed since you moved on
Nothing left but carrion
Festering in the crypt
Mouth wired shut forever
Body parts dissever. You will see no more
Never....
You will never hear another sound
In your coffin you are bound. Underground
Forever
Flesh has now turned to gray, as the larvae gnaw away
As you rot in your smallish tomb, insects care not how you met your doom
In your casket eternally lie. Many were pleased to see you die
In the
Crypt where
You lie
Pass by
They watched
You die
Years passed since you moved on
Nothing left but carrion

I love this song. I love that slow grinding sound of guitars.One of the best from The Wretched Spawn cd.Shit, one of the best songs that Cannibal Corpse made(among others)
These lyrics are probably the eeriest Cannibal Corpse lyrics I've yet to hear. And the music behind it is amazing.
This song is one of my favorite CC songs. The slow guitar riffs just make it seem very powerful. Love it. I honestly don't care what this song means, i just love it for the guitars and the growls from corpsegrinder.
It sounds like someone who isn't dead, yet they are lowered into their grave and they die in there.
