Litany of Decay
Her black eyes allure you
Into her cloak if traps
Nothing is right anymore
Death encircles you but
Never finds you
They Want my curse of eternal
life
But all I want to do is reach
for the knife
In blood you rose
In blood I fall
forever I must sing this litany
dying in life-- let my find my
grave
'twas the myriad year
inducing a lucid fear
I can hear my coffin's cry
my body lies
there's nothing left to say
This Litany of decay
Free me, hear me, my death
where have you gone
I Drown in Vitality
Dying in my immortality
Just waiting for the stake to
reach my heart
Caress me with your pain
like the blood in rain
Your shell is breaking
Show them what lies inside
Witch of centuries
Witch of lies
Love was never meant for you
forever I must sing this litany
dying in life-- let my find my
grave
'twas the myriad year
inducing a lucid fear
I can hear my coffin's cry
my body lies
there's nothing left to say
This Litany of decay
forever I must sing this litany
dying in life-- let my find my
grave
'twas the myriad year
inducing a lucid fear
I can hear my coffin's cry
my body lies
there's nothing left to say
This Litany of decay
