Cerements of the Flayed - Cannibal Corpse

Buried alive wrapped in skin

From another human

That is still alive

Why must I die this way?

Draped in a blood-soaked covering

My suffering a mystery

In the ground barely conscious

Unknown graveyard of the ancients

Is where it all will end

Sacrificial tomb of torment

Excruciating pain to covet

Obtain a new eternal home

Wearing the shroud made of membrane

Cerements of the flayed

Cloaked in the peeled epidermis

Cerements of the flayed

Unburied to live wrapped in skin

From another human

That was still alive

Why didn’t I die this way?

Draped in a blood-soaked covering

My suffering a mystery

Up from the ground barely conscious

A new chapter is upon us

When will it all end?

Must endure the grisly torment

Exhilarating pain to covet

Obtain a new external hide

Wearing the shroud made of membrane

Cerements of the flayed

Cloaked in the peeled epidermis

Cerements of the flayed

Shaved of my own pelt

Replaced ceremoniously

Salvaged from oblivion

Regained life through atrocity

Repulsively existing

Perpetual form of agony

Scraped into an endless hell

Slice meticulously

Exterior invasion

Sickening form of misery

Succumbing to the mayhem

Shocking all humanity

Wearing the shroud made of membrane

Cerements of the flayed

Cloaked in the peeled epidermis

Cerements of the flayed

Of the flayed

Of the flayed

Of the flayed

Of the flayed
