Lustmord & Wargasm (the Lick Of Carnivoro

Cradle Of Filth

An Archangel in bondage,

Bediademed, sold

With a murder of ravens,

But no less Astarte to behold.

Abandoned by heaven to the dead, dark & past,

Cast her dispersions on life's brittle glass.



And though her eyes still held fire

as stone walls caged the Beast,

'Gainst the lassitudes of death

she fought but failed to greet.



Midst lies in collusion

She was matyred to teach that:

(girl) "Divinity & Lust are forever forbidden to meet"



But I swore that they would

Before the veil could part our embrace.

Twixt her cold silent hips I kissed

And promised Christendom in -

Flames...



Gravid with madness like a feculent dirge

That obsesses my heart

I am convened by words

To avenge her

Ebon splendour

And surrender

My soul to the dead to achieve prophecies

Of libidinous scourge

Horripilation braying over carrious herds

Vexing nightmares

And their weak prayers

To a no one there

To hinder her decree

To weed the world of their disease



As shadows unblind mine eyes to see

The meat that is their congregation



Oh how they plead to the skies

But this is mere foreplay to war....



Scar-riddled safron eaves bleed like the conjugal

Vestal daughters giving throat to the priest

A sycophant, the despoiler of faith

Now his skinless crucifixion needs a winged diocese...



For her interred I tore a battle banner from His side,

Splashed in red goetia,

Hues of hell & deicide



Here comes the night

Its obsidian light

Is a master whom disasters

Suck upon like concubines

And under black skirts

That whisper of delight

Dark seeds in fruition

Darkened deeds to marry mine



(girl) "In death's bed I have lain

paying lip service to shame,

but for dreaming of thee I regain

I reason to seek life again."



And we smite the divine

For our true nature is sin.
