- GOTH GEIST -


Pluck the strings with fingers of darkness
Your crimson chamber pumping steady
When cruelty grows with poisoned thorns
Deviant nightmares singing deathly

I offer no salvation because I

Will betray you, your heart belongs to me
You try to shut it but I hold the doomsday key

Goth Geist
Linger in perpetual night
Dusk and you embrace the geist
Of gothic specters thrice denied
Goth
Goth Geist

Strike the chord of ghostly overtures
Obsidian whisper melodies
Barbarous knives stab with jagged scorn
Miscreants love the doomed symphonies

I contend with creation because I

Will forsake you, your heart belongs to me
You try to shut it but I hold the doomsday key

Goth Geist
Linger in perpetual night
Dusk and you embrace the geist
Of gothic specters thrice denied
Goth
Goth Geist

The heretic is the martyr
And the sinner is the saint
Killing in the name of love
Never completely removes the taint

Searching for solace within the ruins
Where others have succumbed to the odds
Phantasms writhing inside the flames
While angels desecrate worthless gods

But I offer damnation because I

Will malign you, your heart belongs to me
You try to shut it but I hold the doomsday key

Goth Geist
Linger in perpetual night
Dusk and you embrace the geist
Of gothic specters thrice denied
Goth
Goth Geist
