Worm Charmer Songtext
von Carnosus

I crawl to drink
Along twisting veins ′neath ruptured skin
I can make out the bedraggled silhouettes of my kin
- from them a mirthless whisper crawls
Hear the weeping: the shrill wheezing echoing my squalor
The worm is my kin, my kin is the worm
A Worm Charmer sprung from the cursed tongue

The tongue, is licking mine
The tongue, is licking mine

Crystalline time and light long lost
The fragmentation of my essence was their cost
As I, marked with a tarnished crest
Desperately called for my kin draggling on my bare chest
At their own behest I crawled to drink!


I crawled to never think
I crawled to forever sink in the hysteria beyond sanity's brink
... and through the crystalline time and light that I sought
Blind with desires unfathomable
Flowed a brew from which a swig I drew
To feel a solace I never knew

... and so I drank and drank
And watched as the sun sank writhing into my goblet
Where it mingled with the dust of ancient urns
And soon began to squirm ... and so I drank the worm

I crawled to drink
I, I crawled to never think
I crawled to for ever sink in the hysteria beyond sanity′s brink
And through the crystalline time and light I sought blind

With the tongue licking mine
And my kin swirling 'neath my ruptured skin
I am bedraggled by my vessel's brew
A flow from which too a squirming swig I drew
To fade all light that glew, for a solace I never knew

... and so I drank and drank
And drank and drank from the dust covered urn
And so I drank the worm
