[Verse 1: Cardinal Copia]

[Pre-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
You'd never want me to appear

[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight

What you've done you cannot undo
While you sleep in earthly delight

Like your father in hell

[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
While you sleep in earthly delight
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
Like no other to you
What you've done you cannot undo
While you sleep in earthly delight
Still, your soul will suffer this plight
But like a mother would save
Her own child from digging a grave
