Through the chapel rips a scream
Choir dirge, do you hear it?
In our blessed church of dreams
A murdering of spirit

My love, have you no mercy?
As you utter my last rites
Stay, even if it hurts me
In masochistic delight

Muscle matter softening
To relinquish control
Body as an offering
Dissection of the soul

From death comes our reunion
Candle flickers, chant, invoke
I'd grant you communion
If my blood would wet your throat

Excavation of the dead
You sing, maleficium
Eyes roll back into your head
Moans in the mausoleum

My formidable foe
Cloaked in dark salvation
I can never let you go
Love as self mutilation

Your kiss is carnal damage
Lips meant only to attack
Grip onto blade and bandage
Kill me just to bring me back

As I am six feet under
You are my grave intruder
With shovel, in the thunder
My necromantic suitor
