Lyrics
Mask of the Red Death
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sickness born with life
She is a careful and patient shadow
Man's faithful enemy
Unceasingly transformed, rebaptized
Behind a different mask
I know it's always the same face
Always the same eyes greedy for agony
Always the same compassionate ears
Listening to our moans
To our heartbeats
Passive and disinterested
Like an infidel wife
This cold and wet mouth
Will give us the very last kiss
Death is red
For those who experience her torments
Bound to death like a daughter to her mother
She gives her mass graves overflowing
Of sketched life, of projects and hopes
What's good to see her so active
Abandoned, in the arms of another plague
Humanity slowly disappears
Someone prays, some others cry
What's good to see her so active
