Where will you be they tense for warfare?
What will you see with your innocence there?
Where will you be my darling?
Where will you be they tense for warfare?
"I scream through my bars at the stars
That for these crimes of mine solace me
I will fear not the flames
That to passion are tame
Not nearly the same searing pain
(I pray) As held sway upon losing her
Nor the mettle of roars
That will settle like ashes and scores
As with our ghosts in the fog
When we both turn no more"
...From Swansong For A Raven. Hell This Is A Great Song
hmmm.... sooo many to chose from ! but if I had to say , these few are some of my favorites :
"Tripping through boudoirs laced with opiate themes/
Sipping the bizarre, tasting copious dreams/
A toast to those most sacrilegious of days/
Where for every whim won/
One soon repays "
From 'Absinthe With Faust'
------------------------------------
and :
"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise/
My scarlet tears will run/
As stolen blood and whispered love/
Of fantasies undone "
From 'Dusk and Her Embrace '
--------------------------------
"Rear the tragedies/
That the Seraphim shall sing"
and
"This is the theme to a better Armageddon/
Nightchords rake the heavens/
PAN DAEMON AEON "
and also
" Tablatures of gravel law/
Shall see Gehennah paved/
When empires fall/
And nightmares crawl/
From the cradle to enslave...."
all taken out of 'From the Cradle To Enslave'
-----------------------------------------------
and finally:
"Thou art darkest Gabrielle
Lilith who rode the steed
Thou art pale Hecate
Rising from Thessaly"
From "The Black Goddess Rises"
there were a few others , but those are the ones I listen to the most . sorry If I put too many , it was hard to chose >< .
Mine would have to be from Nymphetamine. It reminds me of the one that got away whose "ghost" haunted me for a long time and all I could do was think about her. I was pathetic lol.
Six feet deep is the incision
In my heart, that barless prison
Discolours all with tunnel vision
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine
Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, a vampyric addiction
To her alone in full submission
None better
Nymphetamine
I also love this from "From the Cradle to Enslaved":
This is the theme to a better Armageddon
Nightchords rake the heavens
PAN DAEMON AEAON
And what use are prayers to that god?
As devils bay concensus for the space to piss
On your smouldering faith
And the mouldering face
Of this world long a paradise lost
"No more a victim of crusade where souls are strung from moral palisades, I slit my wrists and quickly slip away.. I journey now on jewelled sands beneath a moon to summerlands to grace her lips with contraband, the blaze once in my veins"
There are so many that come to mind... but I will list only two.
"Love would have conquered all
But for the Rapture
That ancient plan for my defeat
Denied Faith skies that would have set Her free
It seems again dreams wend to capture"
- I Thank God for the Suffering
"I sip the blood-red wine
My thoughts weigh heavy with the burden of time
From knowledge drunk from the fountain of life
From Chaos born out of love and the scythe
The forest beckons with her nocturnal call
To pull me close amid the baying of wolves
Where the bindings of Christ are down-trodden with scorn
In the dark, odoriferous earth"
-The Forest Whispers My Name
Drink the pouring of my fury
Those darkened waters spur
The brink of war as judge and jury
A rapist executioner
Our time is short the horsemen ride
A fouled breathed chora howls beside
Damnation and a Day has passed
This divine right to Genocide
Weld the gates to Heaven shut
The abyss leers in hissing ruts
Unhilt the black grimoire of death
Inscribe all names that God has left
I live the dream of nymph and men
But now the nightmares come again
"The Smoke of Her Burning" Cradle of Filth KICKS FUCKING ASS
Got one more Ill post I love everything they write.
I splintered Her coffin and lay on the floor
Of a vault with Her clasped as the moon hugs the shore
What treachery this that She breathed no more?
Christ you bastard!
She schemes of growing power and the lengths sucked hard to get it
I dream of being God but ever living to regret it
Our fecund nature decrees that Jesus wept come for
The Devil on Her knees
