Cannibal Corpse - Compelled to Lacerate lyrics

Vicious thoughts will overpower
His virulent mind explodes
Unable to suppress the madness
He can't contain this inner pain
Compelled to

Lacerate rending for release
Set free souls through holes in their skin
Murdered, or have they been saved

Bleeding corpse his work of art
Human flesh a canvas
Craftsman of macabre creations
He can't control it makes him whole
Compelled to

Lacerate rending for release
Slicing through victims and then
He stands back to admire what he has done
Mutilate ruptured figures sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A gristly gift of art


Mangle them ripping death lacerate them

Stunning victims with a club abducted with
Stealth taken to his home
Ropes and chains restrain his
Living subject of art he stabs
Grating with a jagged edge his
Prey screams in pain
Writhing under his knife
Driven to improve his
Victims through gruesome
Design, he cannot stop compelled to

Lacerate rendering for release
Mutilate now it's time to slice

Mangle them ripping death lacerate them

Lacerate rending for release
Slicing through victims and the
He stands back to admire what he has done
Mutilate ruptured figures sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A grisly gift of art
