theatre of tragedy - lorelei lyrics
færie dearest, was it loe soothfast or a façade;
a serenade siren’d to lure – zounds! not to court me?
a mænad, yet the sweetest colleen –
certes didst thou me unveil meekly life pristine.
lorelei,
a poet of tragedies, scribe i lauds to death,
yet who the h-ll was i to dare?
lorelei,
canst thou not see thou to me needful art?
canst thou not see the loss of loe painful is?
dædally didst thou perform the tragic pasquinade,
for all years a d-mndest and driegh’d accolade –
caus’d for all eyes mazéd to behold a mêlée;
in the midst did i swainly cast thee my bouquet:
the one and sole f-ggot that feedeth the fire,
bellow´d bidingly by my heart’s quailing quire.
lorelei,
a poet of tragedies, scribe i lauds to death,
yet who the h-ll was i to dare?
lorelei,
canst thou not see thou to me needful art?
canst thou not see the loss of loe painful is?
perchance author i thee this ikon’d apologue for aught,
doth the wecht burthen thee?, then bethink thine afterthought:
‘tween æther and ‘nether art thou the peerless phœnix –
prithee, darlingmost! – court me rather than the peevish prolix
