Black Heart Romance

My Dying Bride

You're mine when you're bleeding

Divine to the end

Bid adieu to your breathing

No more pretence



I will witness your leaving

With tears in my eyes

But not for your sleeping

Just when you arise



The girl you take in you

Will now cease to be

And the woman within you

At last can be free



Passions and crime. Your lover and mine

Deep came the need. And sweet was her bleed



Through purity and through light

And the grace of the night

We sing and we dance

To our black heart romance



Head full of black. Eyes don't look back

Pale skin and cold. Lying in her fold



She came, she saw, she took anything she liked

My eyes burned with her horror

They fell, they screamed, they wept but they died

From hands of the abhorrer



We're hers when we're bleeding

The love that we feel

Amourous when she's feeding

My heart she can steal
