STURM UND DRANG

Well, cruel Mistress Salem
In such chaos and bedlam
Strap me down in your asylum

I have a confession
Of possession

Lean in now and listen close
I know you love my sweet nothings
Part your lips, give up the ghost
Tales so beautiful yet disgusting

I’ve got something on my mind
That was once upon a lament
And I’m not one hundred percent sure
That you will want to hear it
We feed on the dead to feel alive
Before the broken tombstones
The clock ticks as the meat burns
Here at the cusp of my descent

Evil little Salem
Fall to the song of ravens
Rites, unholy and forsaken

Now, at your discretion
My transgression

Cut it up so entrails hang
Pungent stenches of blood and shit
Processions of Sturm und Drang
Sew that hole up before I fuck it

I’ve got something on my mind
That was once upon a lament
And I’m not one hundred percent sure
That you will want to hear it
We feed on the dead to feel alive
Before the broken tombstones
The clock ticks as the meat burns
Here at the cusp of my descent

mistress salem, can you hear the wolves at the door
howling at the moon and gnawing on the corpse?
the rapture, it waits, for true love with cruel intentions
the truth comes out at last in other dimensions

I’ve got something on my mind
That was once upon a lament
And I’m not one hundred percent sure
That you will want to hear it
We feed on the dead to feel alive
Before the broken tombstones
The clock ticks as the meat burns
Here at the cusp of my descent
