 Puss through your veins takes the place of blood
 Decay sets in, bones begin to crack
 Thrown six feet down, left to rot
 Brains oozing down the side of your broken neck

                    They enter your tomb
 Beginning to feast       Crawling on you
 Now they eat you        Rotting maggots
 Infesting your corpse   Parasites of the dead

Now a very fast slowdown to 130 bpm:

 Now dwell in your head
