The Black Dahlia Murder - A Selection Unnatural lyrics
rate meBorn into a life of suffering<br />
Scientific prodding now beings<br />
Vestigial extremities a twisted mass of skin<br />
<br />
It looks a monster but they swear it's human too<br />
Truth is that it could've been me or you<br />
One simple helix misconstrued<br />
The world of science finds it beautiful<br />
The child is deemed a male<br />
And beneath the glowing lights it's grown<br />
<br />
Can it feel human love?<br />
No one would waste a drop on such a thing<br />
Eyeless abomination hideously disheartening<br />
<br />
Machines inflate its weakened lungs<br />
Sustained by liquid foods<br />
Pinkish throbbing aberration<br />
Anomalous abortion living on<br />
<br />
Monitored observed and when it finally passes<br />
Internal organs will be 'splayed to find what therein lies<br />
Unlock the secrets of the spine<br />
Its mysteries will baffle modern medicine for centuries to come<br />
<br />
What god will it plead unto?<br />
A life spent on display in microscopic detail<br />
X-ray shows with an intestinal maze<br />
The operating theater awaits<br />
<br />
Can it feel human love?<br />
No one would waste a drop on such a thing<br />
Eyeless abomination hideously disheartening<br />
<br />
It looks a monster but they swear it's human too<br />
Truth is that it could've been me or you<br />
One simple helix misconstrued<br />
<br />
He would look better floating in a jar<br />
Cataloged and carried out this life<br />
Of hell comes to an end<br />
<br />
Monitored observed and when it finally passes<br />
Internal organs will be 'splayed to find what therein lies<br />
Unlock the secrets of the spine<br />
Its mysteries will baffle modern medicine for centuries to come<br />
<br />
His sad existence in the gleam of the waiting scalpel<br />
A sick example, a selection most unnatural<br />
Illuminating fortune and fragility<br />
We may never know the meaning of its short and torturous life<br /><br />
