who'd of thunk
at first I was taken aback
I was hungry, needed a snack
please excuse my sudden out burst
I was taken aback at first
red and bloody eat it raw
I grasped at it with teeth and claw
mouth went dry eyes all a muddy
eat it raw red and bloody
me a cannibal who'd of thunk
raw fresh meat makes me drunk
like in the wild a savage animal
who's of thought me a cannibal

Twisted Thoughts
Twisted thoughts inside my head
painted in shades of black and red
where silence is never heard
haunted dream reality blurred
pain so real I fear for my life
dissecting myself with a dull knife
I wake up screaming in a cold sweat
feeling the bed it's soaking wet
I tried to calm and catch my breath
one of these days it will be my death
and on my tombstone I will have it read
died from twisted thoughts inside his head

I'm infectious
You question me and my evil grin
I felt like an infection under your skin
you tried to scrub me off, dig me out
the cure was simple admit your doubt
But being stubborn you don't agree
now if you do there's no guarantee
the deals off and your world's in a spin
Spinning, feeding the chaos within
it's your prisoner, your detainee
whatever you do don't set it free
It's a queer thing we don't talk about
keep your voice quiet try not to shout
I've a feeling the disease will win
I grind my teeth so I wont shout
forgot what I was talking about
I was destined never to be free
I'm the warden and the detainee
locked in my mind somewhere deep within
What I deal with would make your head spin
If they can talk, there's no guarantee
ask those that have been, sure they'd agree
touch of insanity I've no doubt
came in with sanity left without
You can't tell as I strip off my skin
I'm infectious, I say with a grin
Black out
I Pace the floor with nervous energy
my hands are stained crimson
my mind races over scenarios
each ending up with me in prison
a dead body at my feet
I Pace the floor with nervous energy
I couldn't recall who he was
what happened to my memory
these questions bomb bard me
as I try to remember the night before
I Pace the floor with nervous energy
this wasn't a something I could ignore
was it murder or an accident
either way I am in jeopardy
I don't know what to do
I Pace the floor with nervous energy

sickly sweet
the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench
it covers the skin
assaults the taste buds
eyes water from the gasses
just can't get used to the smell
the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench
dead bodies abundant
decaying flesh
the sky blackened by flies
rats and maggots made the ground seem alive
the calling for the dead has begun
mass graves not an option
burn the corpses
the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench
so pungent it burns the nose
you want to vomit but emptied out days ago
eyes of the dead staring
how many more will be infected
how many more will end up dead
the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench

Winter
the sickness was heavy in the air
it could be felt on the skin
wondering strangers beware
elders and children didn't have a prayer
death of winter has settled in
the sickness was heavy in the air
too weak to fight to tired to care
there was no escaping it was everywhere
God's punishment for all their sins
death of winter has settled in
Pride
it breaks the silence of the night
a barbed wire bat just for kicks
tickles my heart to cause such fright
I bash in some poor blokes head
all my friends end up dead
I stay in the shadow out of the light
like the monster under the bed
blood stained teeth and crimson lips
flesh peeled off in strips
not mine but yours instead
it's like an intense acid trip
the horrors I commit are quite a sight
