Layers earth 'neath golden feathers Witness change perpetual The fossils grow embraced by stone Solidified and eternal The times they are decaying The times they are The times they are The times they are decaying The voices of the void Command the muting of the mutants Suffocated by time's pa**ing And stagnating ignorance Actions of the wicked Are remembered evermore And atrocified each atom Burnt and branded to the core All senses shall be guided To a maddening confusion Immersed in a miasma Of a torturous illusion The times they are decaying The times they are decaying The times they are decaying The struggle 'gainst unwordly platitudes
And vile mindcrimes Trapped in the vicious cycle Hidden 'neath the veil of times Behold the bones and touch the abyss Guided by decay Gaze into it and be gazed at Enwrapped in sheets of clay Enwrapped in sheets of clay The times they are decaying The times they are decaying The times they are decaying The times they are decaying The times they are decaying Caressing jagged teeth And clutching, clutching at the straws The flesh soon to be vapourised Subject to nature's laws The body slowly vanished Save the feathers of the soul Beneath the orange glow of dusk We witness change perpetual The times they are decaying
