Lyrics

[Play by raymond, music by theatre of tragedy]

My eyes hold the eventide
Albeit behind the eyes thou hast
Thro' which I 'hold naught else
A flame enshroudéd in its blackness;
But the raven;
Burning without the faintest breeze
Sleep my dearest ones -
Teach me, dearest, the reason wherefore
Mind not the palling velvet darkness
Thou by such angst mark'd art?!

Wherefore is here loneliness?;
Infinite hollowness
In which my thoughts echo
To the shadows I whisper -
With the shadows I waltz -
Bear me; I am not the plague
Altho' nightclad death ... mayhap?!

Dare not naysaying my grant;
Dance no longer with the shadows
Vanish with me abaft the unlight! -
Dance no longer with the dead in the graveyard;
O! the taste on thine lips;
Dance with me the mephisto waltz
A trickling deep red love -
Wedlock 'twixt day and night -
Everlasting lightheartédness -
Offer me relief fro the sunrays
A kiss for thee my dear

Ah! such delight I sense:
Eternally and ne'erendingly;
Savour the bitter grapes of life!
A soulsister of thine I am

Let me openly greet thy kiss;
The most loving and caring bites

Grant me thineself!
I bore the woe in my heart
My heart was shatter'd into its tithe
As I depart embrace me
Save yet are its chambers in flood
And in paltry time will I re-awake -
I love thee
