Lyrics for Waxwork by Exhumed:
| | | Artist: | Exhumed |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Waxwork | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 71 | | | | Lyrics: | In my waxen world, time stands still
Forever frozen like flies trapped in amber
One perfect
moment preserved, just ere the kill
Gruesome atrocities transfixed in horror's
chamber
Poetry without motion, figures stranded midstream
Waxen players in this dark
drama of the macabre
Mouths agape with terror but breathless to scream
No death rattle
heard, nor parting sors...
I am preserver of life through my morbid art
For each
mannequin was truly alive from the start
So if the eyes seem to follow your gaze as you
gawk
Know that in the eyes of the dead, in their shadow you walk...
Cadavers molded in
wax as their lives buried away
More preening puppets to perform in the scenes that I
play
Features cast in the moment of dying preserved
How they screamed as they met with their
fates well deserved...
WAXWORK
Recreating the horror of the moment of death
My
models serve their purpose quite well
Embalm their bodies in wax, capture their dying
breath
Drain the fluids to stave off the smell
Like dolls that dance to their own
funeral dirge
They play out their death scenes interminably
As prized their exhibits in my
dark reserve
They unfold their secrets only to me
Life eternal in wax was their death's
decree
Suffering for my art, they surrendered to me
So when their eyes lock with your
gaze
Look unflinchingly at death or turn away fast...
Skin blistered and softened as it
was coated and sealed away
Another preserved puppet to prance on the strings that I play
The
fear ensnared in their captive countenances I've trapped
Mummified and memorialised in wax
well-woven and wrapped...
WAXWORK

So sit still in your
place at the end of the blade | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
