Suicide And Other Comforts Lyrics - Bitter Suites To Succubi - Cradle Of Filth

I pace, alone 

In a place for the dead 

Overcome by woe 

And here, I've grown 

So fond of dread 

That I swear it's heaven 

Oh sweet Mary, 

Dressed in gray 

Roll back the stone 

With these words scrawled in a severed hand 

Tears fall like shards of glass that bend 

In rivers, like sinners 

Swept with me to join the damned

A darkened sky 

The day that laughter died 

Fell swiftly into night 

And stayed within Her sight 

Staring at the knife 

Oh God, how easy now to sacrifice 

My life, to have Her with me 

So farewell to distant thunder 

Those inept stars I've worshipped under 

Fall farther, their Father 

Lies in wait in flames below 

Whilst my love, a blood red flower 

Calls to me from verdant bowers 

Graveside, I cry 

Please save me from this Hell I know 

Photos 

A darkened sky 

The day that laughter died 

Fell swiftly into night 

And stayed within Her sight 

Staring at the knife 

Oh God, how easy now to sacrifice 

My life, to have Her with me 

An eye for an eye as espied in the bible 

My faith is lost to the burning of idols 

One less cross to press upon the survival 

Of this lorded agony 

And I, (much as I have tried 

To bury Her from mind, 

Fate's tourniquet was tied, when She died) 

Still sense Her presence so divine 

Lithe arms about my throat 

like pining swans entwined 

Footfalls at nightfall close to mine 

Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release 

I snatch Her whisper like the wind through cedars 

See Her face in every natural feature 

Midst the mist and sleepy hollows of fever 

With glee deceiving me 

Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release 

I hear Her voice from where the grave defies Her 

Siren song to sing along, no finer 

Suicide notes, harmonized in a minor 

Strike a chord with misery 

No light nor reef 

No unsinkable of romance keeps me 

Safely from the stormy seas 

Now drowning, resounding 

Death-knells pound my dreams 

Unthinkable to dredge through this 

Listless and lonely winter freeze 

A darkened sky 

This day hereafter dies 

Falls swiftly into night 

And stays within my sight 

Staring at the knife 

Oh God, what ease it was to sacrifice 

My life, to have Her with me 

No more a victim of crusade 

Where souls are strung from moral palisades 

I slit my wrist and quickly slip away 

I journey now on jeweled sands 

Beneath a moon to Summer lands 

To grace Her lips with contraband 

The blaze once in my veins
