Manny Charlton - Maggot Eye lyrics

Say you now your prayers to god

And lay you down to sleep

Commend your soul your human woes

And beg to be his keep

I warn you all you waste your breath

For no God hears your cry

Your mortal coil's surrendered though

To feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

No spawn of hell knows you as well

No wisdom is as true

No faith as strong as time is long

What lies in store for you

So beg you now forgiveness for your sins

I bid you try

Your reasonings are seasonings

To feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Conceived of lust and born to dust

Your life lies in between

Confusions spell hides time so well

That nothing's what it seems

And so you quest for your success

Or for some goal you strive

Then like the beast become the feast

To feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Oh child of hate condemned to wait

For years piled up on years

Your passioned pleas on bended knee

Are not but cautioned fears

For all that lives is claimed by time

And nothing may deny

And all that's man shall have it's end

To feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye

Feed the maggot eye.
