When all truth dies
Life bears down on me.
In the dark of the past
Why won't they let me be?
Thick black water and
Darkening skies,
Alone and unarmed
I scream as all I know dies.
Black moon sheds an eerie light
In a deep red sky.
On this nightmare planet
Where I choose to die.
My bloody lips stain
My glass of ceremonial wine.
Celebrate the death of life
As I run out of time.
Pale face,
Black cape,
Cold blue eyes,
Time to make my escape.
His dark beauty hypnotizes me.
In front of a raging fire.
I touch long cold fingers.
It will soon become my funeral pyre.
I stand slowly.
My long skirt is slit to my thigh.
Far off a low chanting begins as
Burning incense fills the sky.
I step into the waiting arms of Death.
Light fills the sky.
We step into the rising flames.
So this is what it is to die.
Erotic evil calls to me,
Eternal death.
He makes love to me and
Kisses away my last breath.
I scream in my ecstasy
And I am transformed.
Pain brings pleasure,
I live once more.
