AEVO IN AETERNO NOCTURNUS


Casting a shadow on the nightmare facade
There is no devil soul blacker than my own
Your promise of tomorrow leaves me appalled
The lack of all color is the brightest shone

Rose in the night
Raven flight
The murder beneath the moon
And grimmest light
Cataclysmic doom

I see your ghast from the past

My skeletons come out to haunt me still
Alabastrine, gothic nails in for the kill
So, tear me to pieces
And feed me to demons
Betrayal in Gethsemane

At last when love becomes barbarous
Aevo in aeterno nocturnus

Tears on the grave
Which I stave
The strands of the widow’s web
A guilty knave
That once took your breath

Red wine, seductively, pours down your cleavage
To wash away innocence with the sins of flesh
As you push me away, leave me in grievance
Bathe you in candle light from whence we had threshed

I spy your ghast from the past

I am ready to die for one last kiss
If you’ll let me suffer in damnation bliss
So, love me in peril
And I’ll be your devil
Denouncement in Gethsemane

At last when love becomes torturous
Aevo in aeterno nocturnus

As two hearts felt the sting of poisonous thorns
Lay down to a restless sleep in thunderous storms

Reach for your ghast from the past

My skeletons come out to haunt me still
Alabastrine, gothic nails in for the kill
So, tear me to pieces
And feed me to demons
Betrayal in Gethsemane

I am ready to die for one last kiss
If you’ll let me suffer in damnation bliss
So, love me in peril
And I’ll be your devil
Denouncement in Gethsemane

At last when love becomes barbarous
Aevo in aeterno nocturnus
At last when love becomes torturous
Aevo in aeterno nocturnus

I will see you once more
At the cemetery gates
We thrive as one
Eternally nocturnal
