Say you now your prayers to god   And lay you down to sleep   Commend your soul your human woes   And beg to be his keep   I warn you all you waste your breath   For no God hears your cry   Your mortal coil's surrendered though   To feed the maggot eye      Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye      No spawn of hell knows you as well   No wisdom is as true   No faith as strong as time is long   What lies in store for you   So beg you now forgiveness for your sins   I bid you try   Your reasonings are seasonings   To feed the maggot eye      Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye      Conceived of lust and born to dust   Your life lies in between   Confusions spell hides time so well   That nothing's what it seems   And so you quest for your success   Or for some goal you strive   Then like the beast become the feast   To feed the maggot eye      Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye      Oh child of hate condemned to wait   For years piled up on years   Your passioned pleas on bended knee   Are not but cautioned fears   For all that lives is claimed by time   And nothing may deny   And all that's man shall have it's end   To feed the maggot eye      Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye   Feed the maggot eye.      Copyright © 1999 mcb
