In my waxen world, stands still Forever frozen flies trapped in amber One perfect moment preserved, ere the kill Gruesome atrocities transfixed in chamber
without motion, figures stranded midstream Waxen players in this dark of the macabre Mouths agape terror but breathless to scream No death rattle heard, nor sors
I am preserver of through my morbid art For each mannequin was truly from the start So if the eyes seem to follow your as you gawk Know in the eyes of the dead, in their shadow you walk
Cadavers molded in wax as lives buried away More preening to perform in the scenes that I play Features cast in the moment of dying How they screamed as they met with fates well deserved
Recreating the of the moment of death My models serve their purpose quite Embalm their in wax, capture their dying breath the fluids to stave off the smell
Like dolls that dance to own funeral dirge They play out their death interminably As prized exhibits in my dark reserve They their secrets only to me
eternal in wax was their death's decree Suffering for my art, they to me So when their lock with your gaze Look unflinchingly at or turn away fast
blistered and softened as it was coated and sealed away Another preserved to prance on the strings that I play The fear ensnared in captive countenances I've trapped Mummified and in wax well-woven and wrapped
So sit still in place at the end of the blade By my design, death's hand find you out of reach Another in this deathly silent world that I have made of sound, fury or motion, sense, movement or speech
Awaiting a terminus never will come You're a bound by my strings Trussed in this tomb of wax, your here is not done For time not quite end all things
This is my life's work, this still, silent A monument to the fear frozen in a cold, face Take care not to into their eyes, whatever you do When you look deep into death, it back into you too
bubbled and scalded, as this molten bath washed life away Wax covered my still-screaming piece for my prizing, recast in my mold Features harden and set as the wax stiff and cold
