Animal smile,

Lurid and luring, I’ll stay for a while

Animal style,

Give birth in the dirt

To a bastard too vile to live

we raise as our own

What should have died in the crib

We should have known

Eat or be eaten, the offspring has chosen

We thought we knew

what it wanted

Go forth

We let our pestilence spread

Believe

In all the things that it said

Go forth

It speaks, it lies like the dead

Believe,

We’re fucked when it hasn’t been fed

Animal pride,

Pretend we’re alone

but submit to the hive

Fall for the smile,

Assume we’re immune

To animal guile

We want something sick

To inherit the Earth

Ghouls beget ghouls

Replace ourselves

With something worse

We thought we’d be safe

If we gave it what it wanted

A verdant home

With virgin soil

A mountain of bodies

That never spoil

The young of our rivals

Our siblings, our kin

But still it is hungry

And still we give in

Go forth

We let our pestilence spread

Believe

In all the things that it said

Go forth

It speaks, it lies like the dead

Believe,

We’re fucked when it hasn’t been fed
