Amor E Morte Lyrics - Midian - Cradle Of Filth

Her bouquets are wilted 

Too long has She slept 

Their cruel red mouths darkened 

To bowed silhouettes 

I saw in a new moon 

With Her scent on my breath 

But then all to soon 

Came the hunger for flesh 

I held Her in eyes like necropoli 

Laying Her on a tomb with a view 

Lighting Her from Her feet 

To the stars in Her hair 

Drove sweet blood to Her throat 

And My lips parted there

(In the tone of splintered bone) 

She screams benighted 

My limbs ignite 

A carneal carnivore 

On all fours to go... 

An ebon Nemesis 

From torture gardens of Dis 

Having never breathed an Eve 

As far narcotic as this 

Two spellbound hellhounds 

Hearts pounding loud 

Racing Heaven out of focus 

Under quicksilver clouds 

"God is maimed come let us prey..." 

To lunar deities that pave deadways 

Twixt the living and the grave 

Amor e Morte 

Photos 

To cast our fearl shadows there 

We made Love bleed on a Deathbed shared 

Where, begging Me to feed 

To best be Were... 

I licked Her wounds and ate Her rare 

Argentinum spurred 

her watnon words incurred 

A sin ridden tongue 

To open trading in fur 

Never were those gates of pearl 

So rubbed to their cusp 

Never were the Worlds above 

So bitten with the bestial... 

Seraphim fell like guillotines 

Giving gracious head 

Instead of harking prophecies 

And how our brother sang 

Amor e Morte 

In the thick evergreens 

Theirs was a chorus for raucous souls 

Shifting shape and lifting napes 

To commemorate 

Erotic stains 

Amor e Morte 

Unfasten thy masque 

Come skyclad to my arms 

Leave thy gown a dark pool at thy feet 

I yearn musky valleys that no Man hath seen 

The chill keen of stars 

Over Yew and deep wooded ravines 

A hidden meridian 

Where Midian may be... 

In black antlered glades 

Encunted in this forest Goddess 

She whispers My name 

I buck under flames 

Animal nitrates 

Howling through my veins 

I ride riptides that wrest and writhe to the fore 

New lusts ecllipsing lips 

That brought me to this verge of War 

With inner beasts unleashed 

To feast, fuck and run 

Rampart in chase of She wolf pacts 

Forged on heat with setting Suns 

I love the night 

It would murder My soul 

Should I ever fall blind 

For though thy flesh haunts 

I keep also in mind 

The stampede of clouds 

From Dusk's predatory sky 

Purple versed like the funeral hearse 

That first turned thee over to My... 

Unbridled kiss when I found thee in mist 

Dressed for the sepulchre 

My Demon bride... 

"God is maimed come let Us prey..." 

To Lunar Deities that pave deadways 

Twixt the living and the grave 

Amor e Morte 

Ours was a chorus for raucous souls 

Shifting sape and lifting nape 

To commemorate 

Erotic stains 

Amor e Morte 

Amor e Morte
