Omnivore Lyrics - Singles - Madder Mortem

Oh, little figures that toil under weather and sun 

Your backbreaking labor is earning you nothing but hopes undone 

Here nothing is sacred; what pride there is left will not hold 

The price of your failure is shown in the trinkets that weigh you down 

I'm swimming in obscenity that gives me not one second's peace 

Mirror all my faults and flaws, crack jokes at all that I'm made of 

Weeping in our restless sleep, we're dreaming of lucidity and peace 

All good withers and dies 

We seized it all, only to let go 

The empty winners drowning in the flow 

We are all forlorn 

Riddle is solving itself as I kneel and devour 

The strength of the terror will never relieve you of crawling on 

Small voices are prying at secrets I don't want to share 

Pathetic and sweet, all remorse is cut off with the leech that bleeds me 

All good withers and dies in our hands 

We seized it all, only to let go 

The empty sinners drowning in the flow 

I'm swimming in obscenity that gives me not one second's peace 

Mirror all my faults and flaws, crack jokes at all that I'm made of 

The silent heartstone at my feet: we're gagged and bound and incomplete 

Nothing holds in what we are, our filth and greed has come too far 

The great deceit, the greater made by truth well hid in words and shades 

Ten letters on my stony bed to witness every mouthful fed 

'Cause I am the one who will rip you apart 

So die
