1.
After the heart stops, you lose the pulse and stop breathing The skin loses color as the blood falls under the weight of gravity and dissipates The extremities become blue, and the eyes begin to sink The features start to become unrecognizable and the body begins to exalt an intense smell of rotting flesh Inside the body, gas will begin to form, which will cause the appearance of reddish liquid, and bubbles will flow through the holes From this stage on, the insects and worms begin to eat the flesh
2.
The supreme sacred congregation, Within the persecution of all sorts of heresy Apply the laws of the divine justice, Ordered by the catholic church Through the power of the inquisitors, Who fight the heretics perversity, Purifying them all with pain and sacrifice, For crimes against Christ and the canon law Suffering and praying while being disemboweled, Hanged at length and then cut open, To draw out the viscera or intestines Ending with the swift removal of your head Maintaining the integrity of the faith, By means of horror and torture, they where burned Some emasculated, shredding their flesh With a mangled body and chopped into pieces The executioner removed his bowels, Piece by piece through a small hole in his belly Mangled breast with a butcher's axe, Staining the floor with the blood of the accused Those who still conscious, very most pitifully, Saw their entrails burn and hearts removed Their remains were displayed across the land They were decapitated, eviscerated and quartered
3.
An attack using chemical agents And inorganic compounds, As the deadly blood agent Hydrogen cyanide Blocking the oxygen in the blood, Killing by suffocation Some of them dropped dead, While others die slowly Another day where, the black cloak of cruelty and brutality, Decimate the rural population and compromise the future In order to crush the rebellions, ended by any brutal means And leaving behind a trail of death that stretches for several miles Those who were exposed and blinded by the chemicals, First burning and blistering or coughing up green vomit The toxins released inhibiting the signals To nervous systems neutralize them The living ad no place here, in this realm of terror Sweet apples, the Bloody Friday Massacre, Life as frozen in time, just stand still And the death had already passed by The towns and the villages still littered with unburied dead, Razed and hastily buried most of the dead In makeshift mass graves, in an attempt to hide This ethnic genocide of innocent human beings Widespread and indiscriminate Use of chemical weapons, That will contaminate the food And water supplies Wrecking the soil all living beings Have a genetic impact on the population The living ad no place here in this realm of terror Sweet apples, the bloody friday massacre, Life as frozen in time, just stand still And the death had already passed by

Horrific genocide in the eyes of the world Slay entire families, kneeling and begging for mercy Follow the tribal customs of their forefathers, A hate is forged in their own extinction Children! Sons of a heinous suffering Victims of the abomination, sons of hatred They only see death and putrefaction, Together with the smell of carrion The pestilent smell emanates from the decay, The river of blood absorbed by the earth And infects the waters with their illnesses Will be the legacy of a monstrous childhood Hallucinations of hell, full of decay, Deserts of desolation and death Children! Sons of a tribal war Victims of annihilation, sons of hatred With the bloody machete on his back And the machine gun in their young hands Vengeance! Shall be the flag and creed, Nameless graves shall fill in the earth
5.
Graveyards came to life, thousand dead bodies Digging the earth to live, starving for human flesh… eating… Dismembered and eaten alive, decomposing chest, Congregations of feeders, carnage of limbs And rotting flesh, maggots will start slowly Eating the living and regurgitating life Rotting flesh pouring down the skulls, Flesh rotting away on these altars of death, Stripped of skin, muscle and bones A walking anatomy of death Graveyards came to life, thousand dead bodies Digging the earth to live, starving for human flesh Gutted slash and eviscerated - inevitably end the feeding, Eating the living and the dead, a riot of carnage Gutted slash and eviscerated - undead feasting on life, Mincing the meat and grinding the bones Festering on the living in a pool of blood, A soup for the undead, the hunting is beginning, Eating a never ending pile of undead corpses No humans can escape of the horrid killing Gutted slash and eviscerated - inevitably end the feeding, Eating the living and the dead, a riot of carnage Gutted slash and eviscerated - undead feasting on life, Mincing the meat and grinding the bones

Revel with blood! Mass extermination a feast of carnage Eye for an eye, leading to their own destruction Crimes, atrocities committed against their own people Massacre of children and defenseless human beings Mangling and slaughtering entire populations Leaving behind the rotting human remains. In the name of a false religion, money is God Can a dismembered child have a future? How large is the hatred, suffer and the sorrow Of a father who saw his own sons into pieces? Revel with blood! Rotting flesh a shattered remains Cemetery soil, extending and taking all the land Holy land! The spoils of a daily massacre Open air graveyards, infesting the environment The undead population rises from the ground And their leaders will rule over zombies Worshiping the same God, but claiming lives Carnage for supremacy and a dominant ideology Leaving death beneath the temples Sowing the seeds of hate and a blood trail Revel with blood! Mass extermination a feast of carnage Eye for an eye, leading to their own destruction Revel with blood! Rotting flesh a shattered remains Cemetery soil, extending and taking all the land

Black death 03:34
The bacterium of the disease Is spreading by fleas or the rodents, In certain areas remains endemic And transmitted to the humans Enter the body through small skin integrity breaks, Spreads to the lymphatic glands and multiply When the disease and the symptoms manifests, People suffer an infection of the lungs The transfer of oxygen is corrupted Respiratory ailments problems, Identified with pneumonic plague Followed by fever and vomiting of blood After the malady changes, black spots or livid Appearance in the arms, thigh or elsewhere Another way, boils erupted under the armpits, Alike the emergence of certain tumors in the groin The plague infects all subjects Until remains the dead and the immune The smell of putrefaction travels Carrying with them the mark of death Through the crowded alleys of human flesh The intense smell of carrion goes flowing, Conveying the germs through the air Spreading death, and more putrefaction
9.
Ancient beasts, hungry for human flesh Hidden from the world, protected by guardians With a mission to exhume the food in graveyards Blocking the advance over living beings Grave digging is our mission He who harvests the rotten Corpses turned into slaves And sorely molested Ravening of meat, hunger for the rotting Waiting millenniums in the darkness During the night, dig up the corpses Pull the rotten stiffs out of the tombs With tools, dissecting the human remains, Dismember the limbs and store them - in containers The jellified muscles are ripped off Boning the rotten meat and grinding the bones Drink and savor the cadaverous juices And consuming the flesh. The maggots dine In the cemetery, creatures roam Searching for with craving, Smelling the sepulchral tombs To exhume the fresh graves Bloodthirsty creatures, overcoming the ages Waiting for the dinner of the apocalypse

I’m crawling and rotting away Pieces of me are falling down As I wonder by the graveyard Trying to remember if I died I see my name in the tombstone Soiled by guts and gore Written by death himself Why am I lost in this sea of graves? My soul was stolen, the corpse wanders alone I’m full of maggots, consuming my flesh I’m lost in the reign of humans In the realm of the living Where is my grave – Where is my soul My face detaching, my eyes are melting The flesh of my body is falling away My bones shine to the moonlight No entrails, why I’m wondering alive? Falling without strength left all behind I have no blood, creatures are eating me Why am I dead and walking around? I want my grave, my eternal rest Shadows haunting me, I’m alone in the night Nameless headstones of violent deaths I’m lost in the reign of humans In the realm of the living Where is my grave – Where is my soul
