Exalted into Curse

Exalted into Curse
Exalted into Curse
Lord Selvmord

Dwelleth in the sepulchre of silence,
Shadows waltz with a glare of pestilence
Darkness shrouds, all unseen
Save a sylph's ghost
A lament in her heart as debauchery screams

Shackles bide,
and still thou hide
as thou hath come to haunt me
come hither,
to this darkest spot
darker still without thee

Through walls of sleep
a portrait of thee suspends
Inside my dreamscapes
bitter ties to these ends
that hath exalted thee to death

So dusk has spread her wings again
Cometh now is love's sour bane
Lusts they wither on ardent tongues
As lovelorn lips speak of pain
With fettered wrists wrought in disdain

Flickering now are the flames
Angels cadent from whims of Grace
For those once in vice, cast a stone

For every sin they shan't atone

Darker now is the night
My lips to bear, curses of spite
To those in vice who cast the stones
To scorn on me this supernal path
As goblins feast in aftermath

Brighter now is the moon
Radiant with it's malevolent swoon
Florid my flesh with the tears I've lost to thee
A feverous glow from thy face
Thy ardent caress burns in me
Whispers set me free

Thou come in disgrace
Solemn now is my heart
In the dust of thy depart
Thy requiem forever haunt
As my heart withers, eternally gaunt
