So Let It Be Rotten... So Let It Be Done

Desensitized to the necrotized, a trompe-loeil made zombified

Mocking death mask for the mortified -deformed

In formaldehyde death now baptized - reborn

The sickening sight now sanitized

In celebration of the demised

Death unrevealed - decay clumsily disguised

But behind the lurid, leering eyes

Decomposition will arise

So let it be rotten - so let it be done

Behind the shroud decrepitude begun

So let it be rotten - so let it be done

So let it be rotten

So let it be rotten - so let it be done

So let it be rotten

Immured deep within the absurd, beyond the pale obscenely blurred

Rigor mortis sets in undeterred - putrescent

Embalmed in lugubrious repose, as from within you decompose

Unmoved by orchid, lily, or rose - quiescent

The distasteful scent lurks just beneath

The truth of death lay out of reach

Its cold caress - would curdle funeral wreaths

But beyond the mendacious mask youll see

Putrefactions perfidy

So let it be rotten - so let it be done

Within the casket, decay has claimed its throne

So let it be rotten - so let it be done

Death worms its way into the corpse its work begun

So let it be rotten let it be done
