Necrotizing Fasciitis Lyrics

"Make it sound nasty!"
Necrotizing Fasciitis

Ooah.... Oh, yeah... Destroy
Uaah... Destroy
Destroy, destroy, destroy...
Born in darkness
Escaped the grave
Devouring flesh
Now embrace the plague
Born in darkness
Escaped the grave
Devouring flesh
NOW EMBRACE THE PLAGUE!

Yeah....

Necrotizing Fasciitis
Embrace the plague

Yeah....
Song explanation by vocalist Jason Wisdom:

The lyrical concept for this song is short and sweet. Necrotizing Fasciitis means "flesh eating bacteria", which fits the aura of the song perfectly - it is nasty. However, as is often true of great songs, there is an underlying metaphor in the text. In this case, the plague is Jesus. Kind of a dark metaphor huh? Well may, but the idea is very simple. Flesh, or more specifically the sinful nature of carnal self, is something that all humans struggle with, and Christ is the only true power for defeating that sinful nature. And so, we cry out for Him to infest our bodies and devour our flesh. EMBRACE THE PLAGUE!
