Lyrics Buried in the Backyard - Cannibal Corpse

Buried in the Backyard

To kill, is why I live
My God, gives eternal life
Slice you, I watch your blood flow
Rotten brains, I feed til I’m full
Pressure building, the body starts to swell
Souls of my victims bring me great power
Feasting on flesh by the hour
Lungs explode as I cave in your chest
Probing through organs, searching for meat
Chewing the heart of my kill builds by evil will
Bodies emptied of blood to fill my sacrificial chalice
I stalk my prey at night, need to kill tonight
To strengthen my evil soul, those that I kill worship me below
I am your worst reality, pain and torture of humanity
Violent ways of insanity, there’s no end to this cruelty
In my grasp, I’ll kill you fast, I’ll send your soul to hell
Butchery of human beings, the only life I know
My armies of zombies will inherit the earth, answer to my spells
Mutilate the human race in search for the immortals
I drag the carcass home, it feels stiff and cold
Incantation of the devil to rob it of its soul
Consume the lifeless cadaver, I drink your blackened blood
Death flows through my body, indulge in its pain
Crucifixion in the cemetery awakes the dead from their sleep
Rising from their graves, to devour the weakened mortals
Under my control, I own their tortured souls
