"Certain Death" lyrics

"Certain Death"

Loss of vision
Brain contusion
Sight and short of breath
Heartbeat pounding, pulse is slowing
Light has turned to black
Excruciating agony
Have you lost your will to live?
Perpetuating destiny
It's in your hands to give

Staring at the crypts of death
Certain mortal perishment
There is no will to give
Existence has reached its end

There is no perplexity
End of life's expectancy
Stripped of life's vitality
Certain death

Pressure building inside your head
Compression pushing to the red
Limbs are numb
Control is lost
Bag of blood is about to bust
Searching for the strength to grasp
Your lifespan is flashing fast
Now your time has come to pass

Thickening blood will now delay
Pulse has quickened, but too late
Melting brain cells die away
Cranium dripping, oozing gray

Ever lasting intensity
Perpetuating destiny
Excruciating agony
Certain death

Covered in gore by butchery
Constant flowing ecstasy
Grasping life, you feel it slip
Death awaits you at the crypts

There is no perplexity
End of life's expectancy
Stripped of life's vitality
Certain death
