DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
[Intro]]
Glad I didn’t live
In those dark ages
Where torture was justice
And mercy meant weakness
[Verse I]
Sharpened stake
Driven through the anus
Lifted upright
Base sunk in earth
Gravity works
Bodyweight descends
Flesh sinks downward
Along the stake
The point piercing slowly
Through muscle and bone
Not to kill immediately
But to keep you alive
[Pre-Chorus]
Hours
Days
Sometimes more!
As warning
As example
The art of torment
[Chorus]
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Execution perfected
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Suffering engineered
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Agony
Until it ends
[Verse II]
Masters of the craft
Knew where to aim
Miss the heart
Spare the lungs
Stake run up the spine
Missing vital areas
The impaled left exposed
Alive for eight days
Keep them breathing
Keep them screaming
Keep them talking
Keep them praying
[Chorus]
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Execution perfected
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Suffering engineered
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Agony
Until it ends
[Breakdown]
Condemned lay on his belly
Hands bound behind the back.
Razor split the anus
Paste seals the wound,
Stops the bleeding
Long stake.
Sharpened.
Greased.
Forced into the body
Hammered deep with a mallet
Driven mercilessly
Until it tears through
The chest,
The neck
The shoulders
And they lift him up.
[Final Chorus]
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Not chaos—design
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Pain, prolonged
DEATH BY IMPALEMENT
Agony
Until it ends
