CARCASS
- Death Certificate Lyrics / with translationsA grim myriad, a grey kaleidoscope, sterile, contrasting
Born and die, institutionalised, a bleak epitaph, an apalogue so sad
Cross indexed, cross dissected
Cross referenced, contabescence
Cross indexed, cross bisected
Cross referenced, certificate of death/certified dead
Machine coded, reduced to hard memory, in a data base
Digitalised, statistical obituary, your only legacy, your final resting place
(1st lead - Steer)
(2nd lead - Amott)
Born and die, institutionalised, a bleak epitaph, an apalogue so sad
Cross indexed, cross dissected
Cross referenced, contabescence
Cross indexed, cross bisected
Cross referenced, certificate of death/certified dead
Digitalised, statistical obituary, your only legacy, your final resting place
(1st lead - Steer)
(2nd lead - Amott)
