Rotten Lyrics
My mouth is cracked and dry
The words are choking by
My teeth are gritting with this rage I'm feeling
My stomach tied in knots
Jaw clenched and muscles taut
About to explode inside the anger building
I've sat with the gun in hand
Barrel to temple, can't understand
Bleeding an open sore
These wounds I can't ignore
I am the misbegotten
Lest his horror be forgotten
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Black blood red pill
Razor and scar
Love cut hate kill
This is a war
I stare into the black
Anxiety attacks
My heart is racing
And my throat's constricting
With every cut and scrape
My skin it palpitates
Lying awake I feel the terror grip me
This nightmare never ends
Suffer my demons
Whether the bends
Drowning in misery
And negativity
Walk shores to the downtrodden
Anthems to the misbegotten
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Black blood red pill
Razor scars
Love cut hate kill
This is a war
Powerless
Life endless
Infected
Dejected
The lying liars say their spineless vile hypocrisy
The burning pyres blaze their timeless animosity
Will you stand beside me?
And fight to change the world
Everything is rotten to the core
Powerless
Everything is rotten to the core
Life endless
Everything is rotten to the core
Infected
Everything is rotten to the core
Dejected
The words are choking by
My teeth are gritting with this rage I'm feeling
My stomach tied in knots
Jaw clenched and muscles taut
About to explode inside the anger building
Barrel to temple, can't understand
Bleeding an open sore
These wounds I can't ignore
I am the misbegotten
Lest his horror be forgotten
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Razor and scar
Love cut hate kill
This is a war
Anxiety attacks
My heart is racing
And my throat's constricting
With every cut and scrape
My skin it palpitates
Lying awake I feel the terror grip me
Suffer my demons
Whether the bends
Drowning in misery
And negativity
Walk shores to the downtrodden
Anthems to the misbegotten
Everything is rotten to the core
Everything is rotten to the core
Razor scars
Love cut hate kill
This is a war
Life endless
Infected
Dejected
The burning pyres blaze their timeless animosity
And fight to change the world
Everything is rotten to the core
Life endless
Everything is rotten to the core
Infected
Everything is rotten to the core
Dejected

At the end of the collapse stage of the third act, this song brings their hatred to the highest point, and how it has rotted everything away; They're rotten to the core by pure hate. Their teeth are gritting with rage, their stomach tied in knots, and they both feel that they're about to explode from the anger building inside. At this point, they've already jumped from the ledge and cannot undo their mistakes and actions. Yet, despite the hatred and aggression blinding them, part of them slowly realizes the mountain of regret they've accumulated. However, this feeling of regret gets ignored as they plead for their followers to follow them one last time to end this bloodbath of destruction. Slowly though, it fades out into the next track, "Terminus."
