The Sickness by Mourning Beloveth
The Sickness
Tune Down 1 & 1/2 Steps
C# F# B E G# C#
Tempo = 120 BPM
Time Signature = 4/4
Notes:
Guitar 3 uses a delay setting of 1000 milliseconds to achieve the synchronised
60/120 BPM echo effect, with a feedback setting of 1 so as to only produce a
single "response" to what is being played. Delay is only used during riffs 1
and 2, and any later repetitions of those riffs.

Til' the needle
Finds the vein
The drug hits
Eyes grow dim
Deconstruction, purified
Sublimation intensifies
Habit hardens veins
Softens the bleakness
Softens the bleakness a marker for disease
A hole where we leak out of existence
A long lingering in my throat
As all life's blood drains away
The body suspended in the dark
Bitter gall hiding like organs
In a jar blackened and grinning
Twisting and contorted tipped with poison
The malodorous mix of bottom feeders
Crawl from the primordial soup stunted and deformed
Flesh eaten to the bone eaten from the inside
Bones crushed crushed to dust
Nothing escapes but poison
The body radiates violence a parasite of thought
Deconstruction, purified
Sublimation intensifies
Habit hardened veins
Softens the bleakness
Deconstruction intensified
Softens the bleakness
All life's blood drains away
All life's blood drains away
Habit hardened veins
All life's blood drains away
All life's blood drains away
Deconstruction sublime
