cradle of filth - absinthe with faust lyrics
pour the emerald wine
into crystal gl-sses
we will touch the divine
through kisses catharsis
let us pitch to the seven-year itch
of the ultra-decadent
to a tainted world and the painted girls
that our fantasies spent
tripping through boudoirs laced with opiate themes
sipping the bizarre, tasting copious dreams
a toast to those most sacrilegious of days
where for every whim won
one soon repays
we touched the stars
that now laugh from afar
at we, the d-mned
the d-mned
the d-mned
the d-mned
we have spent our time
drenched in opulent splendour
but when midnight chimes
will gilded souls surrender?
let us drink on the giddying brink
of pools of excrement
all manner of sh-t for the glamour and glitz
mephistopheles lent
i remember the night as if it were engraved
a bright marble bridge stretched across the dark waves
to the sh-r- from the moon and by her grace
came that erudite stranger
that f-cker
he was a predator, creditor cold
our blood was shed on the yellowing scroll
and all that glittered was not gold
but we wanted everything
and for it all, lost our souls
come my friend, to fate let’s raise
two finger shots at this our last soiree
for tomorrow i fear
swoops all too deadly near
this precipitous weir to h-ll’s high gate
we touched the stars
that now laugh from afar
at we, the d-mned
the d-mned
the d-mned
the d-mned
he was a preditor, creditor, cold.
our blood was shed on the yellowing scroll.
and all that glittered, was not gold.
but we wanted everything,
and for it all, lost our souls.
our souls
for it all lost our souls
our souls
