MALTWORM - To Serve In Silence (LIVE in Sofia BG, 11/2023)

A brand new song we started playing live, loosely based on Clive Barker's short story "The Midnight Meat Train".

Original footage by our friend Borislav Raychev, captured during our live set on November 10, 2023 at club MIXTAPE 5 (Sofia, Bulgaria).

Lyrics:

Your consciousness
Would never accept
The crimson horror
Behind those curtains
Witnessing
the terrifying scene
Your blood runs cold

The sickening reek
Of entrails exposed
And bodily fluids
Dispersed in the hallway
Shaved off cadavers
With slit jugular veins
Emptied in a bucket

Darkness. Odour. Rumble.
Pain. Screams. Suffering.

To serve
in silence
To the Father
of all Fathers

Sooner or later
We’re all gonna die
It’s “kill or be killed”
In viscera covered
The prize of survival
of your mortal soul is
to come as the Slaughterer

Get down on your knees
To meet your Creator
Then bring us more meat
And honor the Elders
With tears of turmoil
Pledge your allegiance
and die for this city
