*** LYRICS ***Evening minuetto in a castle by the seaA jewel more radiant than the moonLowered Her mask to meThe sublimest creature the Gods, full of fireWould marvel at making their QueenInfusing the air with Her fragrant desireAnd my heart reeled with grave poetry....From grace I fell in love with HerScent and feline lureAnd jade woodland eyes that ushered in the impurest'Erotic, laden fantasies amid this warm Autumn nightShe lulled me away from the rich masqueradeAnd together we clung in the bloodletting moonlight'Pearled luna, what spell didst thou cast on me?Her icy kiss fervoured my neckLike whispering waves 'pon Acheron's beachIn a whirl of sweet voices and statuesThat phantomed the dying treesThis debauched seductress in black, took me....In a pale azured dawn like Ligeia rebornI tore free of my sleep - sepulchreOn the sea misted lawn where stone figures, forlornLamented the spectre of HerBewildered and weak, yet with passion repleteI hungered for past overturesThe curse of unrest and her ardent caressCame much more than my soul could endure....I, at once endeavoured to see Her againStirring from midnight's inertiaKnowing not even her nameOn a thin precipice over carnal abyssI danced like a blind acolyteDrunk on red wine, her dead lips on mineSuffused with the perfume of nightFor hours I scoured the surrounding groundsIn vain that we might meetWhen storm clouds broke, ashened, fatiguedI sought refuge in a cemetertySleep, usher dreamsTaint to nightmares from a sunless netherMistress of the darkI now know what thou artScreams haunt my sleepDragged from nightmares thou hast wed togetherLamia and LemuresSpawned thee lecheTo snare my fleshPortrait of the Dead CountessDeep stained pain that I had dreamtFlaunted demise, life's punishmentLeaving little strength to seal this wretched tomb....But poised nectar within my stirsUp feverous desire and morbid purpose to searchThrough cobwebbed drapery to where she swoonsGoddess of the graveyard, of the tempest and moonIn flawless fatal beauty her very visage compelsGlimpses of a heaven where ghost companies fellTo mourning the loss of god in blackest velvetEnrobed in their downfall like a swift silhouette'Fleeting, enshadowedThou art privy to my sinSecrets dead, wouldst thou inflictThe cruel daylights upon my skin?Dost thou not want to worship meWith crimson sacrificeSo my cunt may twitch against thy kissAnd weep with new-found life?'Red roses for the Devil's whore....Dark angels taste my tearsAnd whisper haunting requiemsSoftly to mine earNeed-fires have lured abominations here....Nocturnal pulseMy veins spill forth their watersRent by lips I cherish mostAwash on her perfidious shoresWhere drowning umbra o'er the starsEbon's graves where lovers whoreLike seraphim and Nahemah'Nahemah'Pluck out mine eyes, hasten, attestBlind reason against thee, EnchantressFor I must know, art thou not death?My heart echoes bloodless and incensed....Doth temptation prowl night in vulvic revelryDid not the Queen of Heaven come as Devil to me?On that fatal Hallow's Eve when we fled companyAs the music swept around us in the crisp, fated leavesUnder horned Diana where her bloodline was sewnIn a graveyard of Angels rent in cool marbled stoneI am grieving the loss of life in sombre velvetEnrobed in Death's shadow like a swiftersilhouette....*** SUBSCRIBE ***

Jul 15, 2008 - You should check out a different song.They are actually really good.Try Her ghost in the fog.And if that is not for you try Nymphetamine.They have alot of different styles. You just have to find the right one for you. And if you cant, at leats you approached it with an open mind.
