Autolysis vs. Putrefaction Lyrics

POSTMORTAL AUTOLYSIS
IS USUALLY CAUSED BY
PROTHEOLITIC FERMENTATIONS
WHICH ARE PRESENT IN DIGESTIVE FLUIDS
IN THE ENVIRONMENT OF
GASTRO-INTESTINAL SYSTEM,
BUT ALSO IN CELLS,
ESPECIALLY LIVER AND KIDNEY

THE STOMACH FLUID DIGESTS THE MEMBRANE OF THE STOMACH
LATER IT GETS BEAUTIFULLY SOFT, OF DARK BROWN COLOR
BECAUSE THE SALT ACID CREATES HEMATHINE FROM
HEMOGLOBINE
SOMETIMES THE WHOLE WALL OF THE STOMACH DIGESTS...
...AND RIPS APART (GASTROMALACIA ACIDA)

THE CONTENT OF THE STOMACH DIGESTS MIDRIFF (OR PLEURA)
BEFORE DEATH, THE ESOPHAGUS IS ALSO PREDIGESTED WHEN VOMITING
(OESOPHAGOMALACIA ACIDA)

ENTERS BY ASPIRATION INTO LUNGS
- THE SOFTENED TISSUE WILL HAVE A SOURY STENCH
(PNEUMOMALACIA ACIDA)
THE PREDIGESTION BY PANCREATIC FLUID (IN PANCREAS)
(ON THE CHOLEDOCH AND GALLBLADDER) BILE (ON THE intestine TISSUE) CONTENTS OF THE intestineS

PURE AUTOLYSIS NOT COMPLICATED BY PUTREFACTION
IS A MACERATION AND DECAY OF A FOETUS, DEAD IN THE UTERUS

BIG PIECES OF SKIN
AND INNER ORGANS (ESPECIALLY LIVER)
SOFTENED TO A MASS (FETUS MACERATUS)
THE CHANGE (OF THE WHOLE FOETUS) IN PAPER-LIKE SUBSTANCE (FETUS PAPYRACEUS)

SOON PUTREFACTION DOMINATES
TO AUTOLYSIS
CAUSED BY THE LOVELY
BACTERIA OF DECAY
- GRAMOPOSITIVE BACILLAE (BACILLUS PUTRIFICUS)
WERE PRESENT IN THE intestineS BEFORE DEATH
THEY BREED AND CAUSE
THE DECOMPOSITION OF THE intestine CONTENTS

- THE DEVELOPMENT ... OF STINKING GASES ...
- PENETRATION ... INTO NEARBY ORGANS ...

...INTO BLOOD AND SOFT TISSUES,
WHERE THE SEPTIC DECMPOSITION APPEARS

(SOFT) TISSUES CHANGED INTO A STINKING
DARKGREY-GREEN MASS
(OFTEN FULL WITH GAS BUBBLES )

(THE corpse IS INFLATED BY GASES...
...THE TISSUE IS FULL OF GAS BUBBLES - POSTMORTAL EMPHYSEM...
...TOTAL DECAY OF SOFT TISSUES...
...LASTS CIRCA TWO YEARS...)
