Kentucky Fried Strangulation
Carrion Vael Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My face,
Hide everything
basement
Where dreams shall come to die for the godless
Bleahh
I'm insane, but all the same can I interest you in pain?
You'll be safe from the rage, intense obsession with the flame, fanned only by my sadistic traits that I've had all my life, Jesus Christ
Won't help you tonight
My son
Beneath my floorboards you'll will rot
Till the stench fills my nose
And everyone knows
You will be part of me,
Never leaving me
Oh my father
How happy now you must be
Deceiving me
All the shame I bring
To this family
dying inside

Blood (I need it)
Pain (I need it)
Rage (I need it)
Savage and violent madness

I dance on
The cemetery I've spawned
I smile, engage,
I play the part for motherfuckers
With rage
I bring them pain
I slaughter
Perfume of death for my father
Adore my embrace
As the maggots eat away

Bugs, they fester
Let the blood flow free
the ground, lay lime before they beg and plead
Let me paint you, a picture, of what life's about to give you
As hard as I can
It's the end of everything

The dead won't bother you

The killer
The sadist
The secrets
The rapist
The thrill of
Attraction
The man behind the makeup
The bloodshot eyes left choking
Every stroke has my chest hoping
I can find the one to end my lust
And kill this fucking lifeless rut.

My face,
Hide everything
basement
Where dreams shall come to die for the godless
Bleahh
I'm insane, but all the same can I interest you in pain?
You'll be safe from the rage, intense obsession with the flame, fanned only by my sadistic traits that I've had all my life, Jesus Christ
Won't help you tonight
My son
Beneath my floorboards you'll will rot
Till the stench fills my nose
And everyone knows
You will be part of me,
Never leaving me
Oh my father
How happy now you must be
Deceiving me
All the shame I bring




To this family
dying inside
