Nocturnal Supremacy Lyrics
Were wept upon Her graveAnd shunned by stars aboveIn mortal life lurks my dismayAn Angel stole my heartand Death took Her awayShe sleeps beyond the grace of godA dreaming beautyIf wishes could only fray that bondThe dead would sing for me...Twelth moon arose with ghostly voiceA poet's serenadeHer name a whisper 'pon my lipsAnd lo, Rorasa cameFear me not my grieving KingFunereal in breathThe secrets of the dark I knowAnd thus, we shall cheat Death"My promises wrought though despondence that nightHave delivered me gifts from the graveRorasa enshadowed and eternal lifeNever a Devil so vainThe Angel is fallen, for I thought her lostAnd no heaven would silence the painTeach me these secrets, the sensual frostDesire for warm blood againPrincess lay down thy florid cheekIn drunken splendourTonight rare regal fate has castThe wolves among the sheepDark nature clasp my soulAround Her throat mine arms enfoldTo sleep, perchance to dreamAnd then...To dusk and flesh ascendThe Sun descends, magenta spirits fill the skiesand wreak erotic maladies where sex and Death abideFrom writhing tides where gothick siren weave their song to shoreThrough the ashes of the battlefields where ravens and angels warAs phantoms we have fled the basilisk of dayTo rise as phoenix taloned, nightly taking preyWe rule like the red and risen moon upon the seaThe stars of judgement silent, for we share joyousEternityDamnationSalvationStigmata plagueThe wine of Bacchus flowsListen to the thunder rageDeceivers dragged before their crossI am He that vanquished DeathAnd bore the sting of lossWhat vulgar christ will unprise my grasp?His temple, ruined, burnsAnd sweet Rorasa laughsI am enamoured and imparadisedTo catch the fires dancing profanely in her eyes"I will crush them allIf this holds thy delight"Rather dead forever than to lose herNymph-lascivious Aphrodite
