Your body so cold, sweat by the fire
I have no memories with you, only desire
Our wet bodies swarm next to each other
Beautiful demon, there could be no other
You’re the force behind my sin
You’re the black buried deeply within
When we make love, my life begins
My fantasies hold only you within
…
While now you lay shivering in my arms
My blood will warm you, near or far
I still have the taste of you blood on my lips
In my mouth, your neck, in my hands, your hips
In these woods tonight, the ravens are fiending
The wolves are arcing, while you lay steaming
Penetrating your flesh, knowing only your pleasure
Only seconds of pain for eternity’s treasure
…
We both hold the darkness deeply in our souls
Our leather, our spikes steaming as we let go
The evening mists rising neither of us alone
The evening mists rising we’re both at home
Our home is the night, to share together
Its many creatures its freezing weather
Travel with me, my love, through my never
In the night we belong, blackened crosses forever
…
The full moon dancing above our heads
Reminds of our code, past, present dead
I’m a man of my word, you, a woman of yours
Don’t worry, my love, but release your pours
Forget about love, its darkened path
Let loose your lust, your greed your wrath
Put me through pain, it’s better than other
May our souls forever burn with one another.
