Lyrics
Contagion
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jaws -- dripping with disease
Fingers for use of weaponry
Mind spins in fervor of murder's design
Unleashing our buried primal desires
Return to instincts we had lost
Our blades shall speak with eloquence what human words cannot
Terror -- a world of terror we create
Maddening howls fill the streets as further spreads the plague
Gone -- the affinity to modern man
Wavering faith falls to ravenous hands
Unbridled malevolence reaches a boil
As strivings of mankind dissolve into fire
The will to conquer suffocates
A trail of shredded carcasses, our morals dissipate
Now the end's drawing nearer
Upheaval is at hand
Animalistic biddings
A reverse evolution of man
Terror -- a world of terror we create
Maddening howls fill the streets as further spreads the plague
Children -- we are the children of the beast
Instinct counters reasoning, our rage shall be unleashed
The dreams of man engulfed in fire
This world a heap of burning flesh
The end is baring down upon us
The god of mortals lying dead
