THE GREATEST SHOW UNEARTHED The dark carnival is in town You better be ready Just follow the parade Of dancing skeletons Full of ghoulish delights Around every corner Don’t tell your parents you’re here They will soon be mourners Welcome to the lower birth The greatest show unearthed We appear without a sound The darkest show around We will leave you in a daze Madness, murder, dismay We will disappear at night With blood on the concrete I will be your ticket taker Come inside it’s a dream Enter the funhouse of mirrors No one can hear you scream We can supply anything That your heart desires But the consequences Will surely be dire Welcome to the lower birth The greatest show unearthed We appear without a sound The darkest show around We will leave you in a daze Madness, murder, dismay We will disappear at night With blood on the concrete Come inside For the ride Your deepest darkest fears The best night Of your life You’re never leaving here The unknown The unseen Is what you’re gonna find Witness this Witness that Until you lose your mind Welcome to the lower birth The greatest show unearthed We appear without a sound The darkest show around We will leave you in a daze Madness, murder, dismay We will disappear at night With blood on the concrete ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

Buried Alive 03:55
BURIED ALIVE I forever dream within a dream Of a certain city in the sea As I walk the valley of unrest Behind this mask of crimson death I long for a loss of breath And a most dire predicament Murders in the rue morgue Silence and shadow’s what I adore I can’t explain Just how it feels The thought of my premature burial Inside this oblong box I lie With the hopes I’ll be buried alive The oval portrait upon the wall Will someday cause this house to fall The power of words left unsaid As I join the spirits of the dead I can’t explain Just how it feels The thought of my premature burial Inside this oblong box I lie With the hopes I’ll be buried alive Well, I’m the man who’s used up Washed up Bricked up Descent into maelstrom Bedlam Redrum Bet the devil my head Misled Bloodshed Heart under the floorboards Beats for Lenore Nevermore I can’t explain Just how it feels The thought of my premature burial Inside this oblong box I lie With the hopes I’ll be buried alive ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

AIM FOR THE HEAD Can I pose a question How do you kill what is dead I just shoot from the hip And aim for the head He used to be your friend That was another life With a single bullet We’re gonna blow his mind With a loaded gun And a steady hand We just might live through this Aim for the head If you kill the brain Then you kill the ghoul And it’s motor functions Aim for the head Nail up all the windows They’ve come to settle a score Make sure no chamber is bare They’re right outside the door This is a test of your strength And your will to survive If you give up now They’re gonna eat you alive With a loaded gun And a steady hand We just might live through this Aim for the head If you kill the brain Then you kill the ghoul And it’s motor functions Aim for the head Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me Save yourself There is no more There Is no more There Is no more Room in hell I will help you I will help you I will help you Understand Come with me now Come with me now Come with me now Take my hand We can make it We can make it We can make it Through this With a loaded gun And a steady hand We just might live through this Aim for the head If you kill the brain Then you kill the ghoul And it’s motor functions Aim for the head Is this the end of the world Or just the start of the fight You better heed my warning And watch out for their bite They have a taste for your flesh And for your blood they will crave They’re coming for us now From beyond the grave ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

SIX FOOT DEEP I bury the dead yeah Secret place in my head Shovel underneath my bed Caught with my hands red Midnight is creeping in My tightrope is wearing thin Watching the devil grin Darkness, it waits within All I’ve ever known Is the unknown In my haunted home With the rattling bones In my heart of stone Where the ghosts roam When the walls bleed I will bury you deep I will bury you deep Six foot deep Six foot Walk to the boneyard Wind is blowing so hard Carrying the death card Mind is broken into shards In this place that I despise Something therein evil lies Planning out my grim demise Someday we all shall die All I’ve ever known Is the unknown In my haunted home With the rattling bones In my heart of stone Where the ghosts roam When the walls bleed I will bury you deep I will bury you deep Six foot deep Six foot ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

LOOK TO THE SKIES Look to the skies Look to the skies Look to the skies Look to the skies Something mysterious falls to the earth Maybe a blessing, maybe a curse At first we thought they meant us no harm No sense of urgency, no cause for alarm The brightest flash begins our darkest of days Something sinister appears in the haze We better face the facts The plan’s been hatched Duplicate the perfect match Then body snatch We better face the facts The plan’s been hatched Duplicate the perfect match Then body snatch Look to the skies Look to the skies In our sleep is when they enter our minds Do their damage then they sever the lines Overnight absorb our body and soul With no emotion, no need for hope The one flaw they underestimate They can’t get us if we stay awake We better face the facts The plan’s been hatched Duplicate the perfect match Then body snatch We better face the facts The plan’s been hatched Duplicate the perfect match Then body snatch Beyond the surface, the plan is more devious So be on the lookout for carbon copies of us Beyond the surface the plan is more devious So be on the lookout for carbon copies of us First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in First you give up And then you give in ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

HOW TO SERVE MAN Ounce for ounce Blood for blood You get a taste and it’s never enough Pound for pound Eye for an eye You get the thirst and it never runs dry Piece by piece Bite by bite Relish the flavor and swallow your plight Inch by inch Slice by slice Dress your guest and season with vice Let me clarify before we begin Am I getting under your skin Your disposition seems a trifle bland It’s time you learned how to serve man Pinch by pinch Dash by dash Braise the passe and devour the past Day by day Night by night Prepare the course and savor the spice Let me clarify before we begin Am I getting under your skin Your disposition seems a trifle bland It’s time you learned how to serve man Let me clarify before we begin Am I getting under your skin Your disposition seems a trifle bland It’s time you learned how to serve man ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

BOUND AND GAGGED Gotta run away Try to get away Gotta run away Try to get away If you ever want to see your daughter again And every little thing goes according to plan Don’t do anything that you think you’ll regret Or you’ll have to check the mail for your daughter’s head I’m keeping her bound and gagged Her clothes soaked in gasoline Hands tied behind her back Where no one can hear her Gotta run away Try to get away Gotta run away Try to get away Listen up now, I won’t repeat myself This is how everything is gonna go down When you make the drop, you better be by yourself It could be detrimental to your daughter’s health I’m keeping her bound and gagged Her clothes soaked in gasoline Hands tied behind her back Where no one can hear her Scream Scream You can run, but you can’t hide You can run, but you can’t hide from me I’m keeping her bound and gagged Her clothes soaked in gasoline Hands tied behind her back Where no one can hear her Scream Scream ~Lyric By Curtis Rx

THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH Our story starts so very, very deep underground Unaware of the legions they are building down there Then comes the sound, a shrill signal loud enough to drown The time has come, Mother Nature’s now holding the gun Well once you enter the hive You’ll never make it out alive It’s been devised So no human being will Survive Could it be worse I think they’ve acquired a thirst We claimed it first Now the meek shall inherit the earth Kill one and two more will take it’s place Withdraw, the city’s under martial law A nameless horror, like nothing we’ve encountered before The time has come for mankind to be undone They’re coming up You’re going down They’re coming up You’re going down Well once you enter the hive You’ll never make it out alive It’s been devised So no human being will Survive Could it be worse I think they’ve acquired a thirst We claimed it first Now the meek shall inherit the earth Welcome to annihilation Devastation across the nation Welcome to eternal damnation A revelation void of salvation Welcome to extermination Abomination through mutation Welcome to the aberration Transformation then liberation They’re coming up You’re going down They’re coming up You’re going down Well once you enter the hive You’ll never make it out alive It’s been devised So no human being will Survive Could it be worse I think they’ve acquired a thirst We claimed it first Now the meek shall inherit the earth ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

A CORPSE IN MY BED Is it wrong to have a corpse in my bed I don’t think so, even if she is dead Is it disturbing, is it a crime She’s been expired for quite some time Couldn’t let her repose underground A feast for worms inside her burial mound Consecrated by the powers above We fit like a severed hand in glove My only complaint’s the perfume she wears A mix of rancid milk and moldy pears I’m just scared, don’t want to be alone Even if she’s just skin and bone Her skin is dry and body full of dust One day I’m afraid she just might combust I could never think of leaving her side Even though it’s been years since she died My only complaint’s the perfume she wears A mix of rancid milk and moldy pears I’m just scared, don’t want to be alone Even if she’s just skin and bone Let me reiterate what has been said Is it really that wrong to have a corpse in my bed I’m just scared, don’t want to be alone Even if she’s just skin and bone ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx

SUCH HORRIBLE THINGS Sit back now Let me tell you a tale Where justice does not prevail About an Ill-fated life So very full of strife Where two wrongs do not make a right So When I was born I did surely scorn My proud parent’s name Then their lives went down the drain Drove them insane My birth was a curse I bit the nurse Oh, but I love the worst I deserve to be slowly submersed Dried out then laid in a hearse When I was two I poured super glue Into my fathers hair As he sat unaware In his arm chair Much to his dismay Had to cut it all away Oh, but it felt great I deserve to be cut and filleted Then tossed about in disarray Until the pieces melt away I am not a bad man Even though I do bad things Very bad things Such horrible things But it’s not quite what it seems *Not quite what he seems* Not quite what I seem Ah, hell It’s exactly what it seems When I was four I’d wait by the door With a knife in my hand And a most devious plan It would be quite grand As the mail fell through the slot The sharp edge he got Oh, but I love the thought I deserve to be tied in a knot Broken bones and blood clots When I was six I used to trick The next door neighbors son In the woods we would run Time for fun Hide and seek has a cost He would be forever lost Oh, but I love to scoff I deserve to have my head lopped off Hidden and covered in moss Until this memory’s forgot I am not a bad man Even though I do bad things Very bad things Such horrible things But it’s not quite what it seems *Not quite what he seems* Not quite what I seem Ah, hell It’s exactly what it seems When I was eight I used to hate The color of my house So as quite as a mouse I burned it down To the ground When no one was around Oh, but I love the sound I deserve to be quickly put down Rotting six feet underground When I was ten I used to pretend To drown in the sea ‘Till they’d come to rescue me Then precede To laugh in their face Such a disgrace Oh, but I love the taste I deserve to have my brains displaced All over the fireplace Until this life has been erased I am not a bad man Even though I do bad things Very bad things Such horrible things But it’s not quite what it seems *Not quite what he seems* Not quite what I seem Ah, hell It’s exactly what it seems When I was twelve I used to delve Into evil schemes Just to elicit screams Boost my self esteem Pushed my sister down a well She just fell Oh, but I love to dwell I deserve to roast deep down in hell Where no one can hear me yell When I was fourteen Nothing much happened Well, there was that one time I am not a bad man Even though I do bad things Very bad things Such horrible things But it’s not quite what it seems *Not quite what he seems* Not quite what I seem Ah, hell It’s exactly what it seems When I was sixteen Life was frightening My brother was quite dull So with laughter in my skull Pushed him in a hole Then buried him alive He barely survived Oh, but I love the cries I deserve to be battered and fried In an electric chair that’s set on high Now that I’m eighteen I still hate things From this padded cell I call my home No friends, no phone No life to call my own Here I will lie Until the very day I die Until my blood begins to dry And I return to the darkness from whence I came So I am not a bad man Even though I do bad things Very bad things Such horrible things But it’s not quite what it seems Not quite what I seem Ah, hell I’m exactly what I seem ~Lyrics By Curtis Rx
