My Dying Bride
Album • 1999
A cruel sleep 'cross our land All withered and dying As the[y] fall, the victims They're dying a sad death In our land, we lay down And suffer again A dark girl 'cross our land Is pacing. Is preying And with her, a fever A marching black fever No eyes see. No features Just black form, suffering You have her sympathy You have her tears She tries only to take All your fears The pain she feels When she drinks your soul Is hers to suffer It is her toll Believe me, she's helpless When she curses our land When she swallows light It's not her hand Poison awaits when you kiss her Her heart cries out for you, for me Untold misery is hers to serve out for eternity Out cold. Mankind will stay forevermore if she gets her way She can't help it. It's her curse To sing your pain in her own verse She is the dark The nightmares you hide The pain you feel The suffering inside Though she was like you Through her dark past But now, the conqueror Her choirs vast Oh, please forgive her As mankind dies As angels weep And heaven cries

All are welcome here To the Eden Feast Enter if you will This is Edenbeast Faces stay hidden Behind their dark masks In arms they enter The Great Hall of Sin Eden, calls again For sick minds. For me Inside there. All laid bare Take your pick. Devour now Lust clawing at your feet Desires for you to greet Every woman a handsome treat Young seed for you to reap Anyone that you desire Leave your faith at the door Any pleasures you require Lay all around, upon the floor Some call this blasphemy And try to end it all They question our sanity And preach Christliars' call "Seat yourself young man Do you see them feed? As the feast goes on, Do you feel their greed?" It's my fear that tears me down But this night we'll have no tears I want you. Beautiful gown Take my hand. We'll have no tears Kiss me deep. I want you now In my arms, we'll have no fears Inside there. All laid bare Take your pick. Devour now When you've had your fill Of poisonous flesh Leave this place of sin And watch your back for death

I clasp her dying body to bloody mine The essential nature of her was so fine With torn garments she lays in my arms Womanly graces laid bare No dignity Cast aside like nothing at all Torn was she Shot down and strewn on wasteland In her prime Opened up for the world to see Oh, the love of mine No more tears for me now Lose all fears for me now Should I seek revenge or let it lie? Should I find the one and let him die? I wonder what you would do if it were you One black, furious midnight Through howling rain I descended right upon him My weeping prey Kissing him as his life ended In the rain Sweet was my revenge A life for life I feel no remorse The night he died I wonder what you would do if it was you?

Small, a speck in the wide blue sea 'Tis the last of all the land A dweller upon our lonesome isle The last lonely man On weary night, under stars He'd often lay and gaze Up towards the moon and stars The sun's dying haze Time and again, Orion's light Filled our man with joy And within the belt, he'd see his love Remembering her voice Such is life upon the isle Of torment and woe One day good, one day bad And some days, even hope The light at the end of the world Burns bright for mile and mile Yet tends the man its golden glow In misery all the while For fifty years he stands and waits Atop the light, alone Looking down upon his isle The gods have made his home A deity felt sympathy And threw our man a light Your woman, you may see again For a single night I'll tend the light, for one more night With the woman whom I love Screamed the man, with tearful eyes To the deity above And so it was that very night His lover did return To his arms and to their bed Together they did turn In deepest love and lust for life Entwined they did fall Lost within each other's arms They danced Her hair long and black The dark beauty of her eyes Olive skin and warm embrace Her memory never dies Agony like none before Was suffered by our man Anger, raged and misery too Like nothing ever before His sacrifice was not so great He insists upon the world Again he would crime, again he would pay For one moment with the girl Long was the night filled with love For them the world was done Awoke he did to brightest light His woman and life had gone To his feet he leap to the sea He looked to the lighthouse on the stone The price is paid and from now on He lives forever alone Fifty years have passed since then And not a soul has he seen But his woman lives with him still In every single dream 'Tis sad to hear how young love has died To know that, alone, someone has cried But memories are ours to keep To live them again in our sleep

Over me. Cover me. Deep inside THE FEVER SEA. Lame from my mothers womb Born a cripple and sick. Under a red moon. My hands bleed. Feet red raw. I'm a broken man who dreamt the great war. The fear of life swallows me. Takes me through THE FEVER SEA. They crawl to me. Cry for me. I'll drown them all in THE FEVER SEA. The feast flows on forever. Devour me until never. Fill them all with horror. Let them sleep with terror. Who calls me now, then turns away? Who takes the night, and brings day? Lame from my fathers hand. Born to heal. Heal in every land. I will never get out. I even prayed unto his house. The cold feel of my skin. I try to lose but alwys win. Lame from my own hand. Believe me I've tried. Tried to make a stand.

Enter the Ghost Lake. The waters whisper Of something brooding. No way out of here. Slow smouldering, smouldering heat. Lapping at your skin Pulling you down again. I wish that I could Fan back to life The dying embers Of my long lost passion. Descending deeper. With black as my light. With twist and turn. All men will be tried in life. We look for light to call. The call to save us all. Lest we fall to our knees. The death, we kiss his feet. Oh, sacred mother come. For our fate is done. In blindness do we run Always backwards. The care of many Was lost in my hands. The sickness came in Floods of torment and woe. My withered body. Aching and bone tired. My christ who art lord. Hold me down again. Knee bent and head held low. Eyes closed against my foe. In prayer I sing on low. Answers to my last call. Oh, sacred father come. For it is you who's done. In blindness do you will run. And be sure not to fall. Oh, christ, what have I done? Ill fortune now will come. Fire raining from the sun. All virtue swept away. In floods of blackest death. The ghost will take my breath. My sins I will forget. I am nothing again. Exit the Ghost Lake. the waters silent. What now has risen? No man stands alone. The world is changing. 'Tis misery who Leads our way now. Holding man down.

You know they lied. To us they lied. Remember them? The final words. All these years. All these fears. Remember them? Ancient words. We'll take it from you when we like. You will suffer for nothing in your own home. Will you help me fight them off? They are killing me. Help me with my broken heart. The endless dark. Will you keep them far from me? Oh, the misery. I need a friend to lay upon. To be my sun. Oh, lord help me with my pain. I'm dead again. Beliefs have taken me to my end. Beliefs have taken me down again. The words I have followed, took me down again. The lies that I have read over again. Leaves are falling words from the earth. Spoken in silence. Never heard.

Time wears out affections. Love hopes to join us. Your presence on my wing. Arise from my sickness. My hopes, eclipsed by failures. Dismal moments fall on me. A terrible sobbing Echoed through my own house. The lightening gets frightening. Oh, cover me. Memories of her sadden me.(are killing me) Believe me. The suffering. The agony. My young love taken from me,Too early. Beware! I will seek you. Find you. Vengeance is mine. Wherever you hide You know I will find. Your face! I see, I won't forget. I'll be right there. Preying on you in every dream. You will never leave me again. By your red hand. You left me here to suffer and die. Eyes black. Cold face. Your stare burned me. The sears will be with me,Until my last day. My grip on you grows tight. I will choke you until I hear your last fucking breath. Into your eyes I'll smile. I'll cry. And when you are gone No-one alive will grieve for you. Silence your pain. So quiet, so quiet. Weeping, I can't help it With Heaven.
