Crucified Mortals - Resurrected Fiend

Caught in the crossfire a soldier at war is destined to meet his death
Hear the shot fired as it tears through the wind and makes its path straight to his head
He trembles with fear knowing his end is now near and struggles at another breath
His time now expired from life he's retired, his body lies amongst the dead

Algor mortis sets in to his exanimate corpse, the stench of decay has commenced
Reanimation occurs by an unknown account and a revenant being awakes

The messenger he stutters as he speaks to the mother your son's pronounced KIA
She gasps with grief and refuses belief leading her sanity astray
Yet a sudden surprise, her son came home alive, although he'd been claimed for dead
He stood there before her, brutal and frigid, devoid of the son she's once known

His skin is pale, his eyes are crimson, his actions are crude and violent
When the night falls this monster unleashes his rage to those he'll inflict detriment

Deception's mask conceals no more the truth of this fierce creature
As the skin dissolves his bones decay and unveil the inner monster

For those who've seen and know the truth are under the grasp of death
This monster claims the lives of those knowing of his secret
As disintegration carries forth his strength becomes feeble
From the scene he flees to the grave to lay himself to rest

In the grave he'll rot
