The Pit Lyrics by The Convalescence

Monument of Misery

2019

[Verse 1]
The dark waters are glistening red
The world will never speak your name again
Choking on your own words
The slowest of deaths is what you have earned
Cutting the tongue from a liar's mouth
Making incisions and tearing the organs out
Leave in the eyes, true terror I seek
Sadistic pleasures from making you bleed
[Chorus]
Smash in the skull, darkness creeps in
Unable to scream as the earth takes you in
Surrounded by roots and branches and vines
Your body consumed, insects burst from inside
A parasite in life becomes a host in death
[Post-Chorus]
An ecosystem within a corpse
Constructing new framework within gushing sores
New growth of beauty rises from decay
A new life emerges from where it was taken away
[Verse 2]
I'm repeating the cycle
Adding another body
To this mass grave
May the light never reach this place
The blood of a hundred souls
Stains this wretched pit
Nightmares are real, they beckon to me
The pathway to hell is forever lit
Ingesting the rotting flesh
As I feast
Gorging myself on the deceased
Deep in the torso, my hands will explore
Bathing myself in the festering gore
The moon casting eerie light on the forest floor
Severed limbs exploding with maggots
Rolling around in the masses of the visible gore
Becoming one with the rot
[Chorus]
Smash in the skull, darkness creeps in
Unable to scream as the earth takes you in
Surrounded by roots and branches and vines
Your body consumed, insects burst from inside
A parasite in life becomes a host in death
Swallowing putrescent remnants
Until nothing's left, until nothing's left
[Post-Chorus]
An ecosystem within a corpse
Constructing new framework within gushing sores
New growth of beauty rises from decay
A new life emerges from where it was taken away
