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
