I Would Cut Off My Immortal Limbs, For Love

drink and, consume
from my, raw open heart
My long awaited consort
consume all of me, be one with me
drink, I said drink!
and dance in the forever lonely night
for, I am bleeding divine love
sharing my exquisite pain
come drink to the moon of the frozen night
and dance in its pale moon light

my blood flows with eternal pain
and I share it with you, my new bride
can't you feel it's deep ancient cries
screaming out to love once again
I have ripped heaven apart
only to behold a glimpse of you

the pain! the pain!
as eternity flows from my veins
it robs Morta the goddess of Death
of your devout mortal flesh

look up at me
as you drink of me
and know this
this will be the face you
shall see, for all time
and love and blood
will always comfort thee
