Skins of mask are flayed and torn
Abrasions and scars hide face forlorn
Borrowed sunshine seems profane
Sorrow drains frozen emotions
Pale feathers eluding, soothing
Portraits of grief abjured, slayed
All your memories, platitudes chained
Scorches of grace never heal
Denial of rancor my angel
Calls forth dearth of reason.
Gilded path to mind's eye damnation
Pure white chemical paradise
Through dark colonnades, ruins of feelings
Your kindred pain, perifidous guide
Theatre of mortals, yearn to know
White widow
Dreams that sought graven image
Now they praise the christ of euphoria
Stabbed cygnet with stained wings
White widow
Emotion turmoil, the war in us
Parasite touch brings warmth of lust
Wounds of soul smile crimson within
Light lingers, as the rapture grows dim
Treason in kingdoms of bereaved pathos
Feed the flames!
With bonds of sacred love we burn
Bleed for flames!
