 well that's my second Carcass contribution.  I must say that
 this was a lot tougher to figure out...many sections are
 really hard to hear; so if you've got a supreme stereo system, 
 maybe you will be able to hear it better and maybe offer me 
 your corrections.  for the most part though it sure be pretty 
 dead-on (no pun intended).  i can't handle tabbing solos yet, so feel free...
 later, death-heads.

 The Lyrics:
 
 An encloaking, dark epoch
 In which all life is now appraised
 Another valueless commodity
 On which the rapacious may feebly graze
 Indebted homage to their mammon
 Whilst the mort is the music of the meek
 Transcendence from a beautifully brutal reality
 Is what I seek...
 
 Noxious, sully dolour
 Is not the sentiment upon which we feed
 But precocious consciousness
 Draws out a morbid nous to bleed
 Chiseling out seething words
 Which cut deep down to the bone
 Always legible
 So be it on our own headstone...
 
 (Lead: Necrononism by M. Amott)
 
 Rising to our own nadir
 Reality we try to extirpate
 Trying to raise a twisted smile
 Similar to that silver plate 
 On a coffin which is joined
 Hammering in each final nail
 Last kill and testament
 Left now intestate...
 
 Noxious, sully dolour
 Is not the thesis which is bled
 A precarious train of thought
 In which mental cattle-trucks are led
 Carving out skillful words
 Which shear brittle bones
 Always spelt out well
 We just can't leave the dead alone...
 
 Monographic text 
 A terminal doctrine of diseased minds perplexed
 Enunciated epigrams
 Eschatological, rotten requiems
 
 Always our own worst cynics
 Exorcisers of scorching scorn
 Digging our own graves
 But never stand over and mourn
 The roulade now pandemonium
 Displaced in the muggy sods
 Espoused with the macabre
 The dead we filch and rob...
 
 ..Munificent bale...
 ..From the deviants staid...
 
 Execrations - taunting spiritual release
 Exoneration - upon the perishable we feast
 Excogitation - picking at the bones of convention
 Exculpitation - foul verbal conflagration...
 
 Epigraphic text, a literary vex
 The macabre perplexed, with corporeality meshed
 
 (Lead: Eschatological excavation by W.G. Steer)
 
 Euthenic text
 An unpleasant journey, to a world perplexed
 Corporeal epigraphs
 Eschatological unpleasantness
 
 Always forever cryptic 
 Exercisers of twisted grief
 Helping you to dig up the interred
 Whilst fresh still are the wreaths
 The harmony now pandemonium
 Heard out in the muddy dirt
 Espoused with the bizarre
 We play on our own turf...
 
 ..Epithetic text...
 ..A macabre reality perplexed...
 
 Execrations - literary tales of atrocities fairy
 Exoneration - harsh, cold bloody marys
 Excogitation - a narcissistic eutechnique
 Exculpitation - perverse artworks, so unique...
 
 Monographic text, a literary vex
 The macabre perplexed, with reality meshed...
 
 (Lead: Corpsereality by M. Amott)
 (Lead: Cold logistic language by W.G. Steer)
