In the same way our bodies all erode
My declining selflessness forbodes
A changing in the endless winding rode
Too slow to notice, yet in hindsight obviously known
Tainted and befouled
Tarnished, mouldy
And festering, rank, sour
Adulterously contaminated
Can you feel it burning in your neck
Like I feel it scratching in my head
Toothache, up and down each one of my legs
The dubious world now seems of high moral character
Worm-eaten eyes
Putrescent blow-flies
They all cling to me while I'm still alive
Excrescence
Excrescence
Excrescence
Excrescence
It kicked me out, parasitic as I am
(Such a f*cking man)
Any doubt of before is by now quite certain
I used to be proud of what I thought made me different
Now it seems that everything that makes me is besmirched
