lyrics

I should not believe or yearn for thee.
You should not reveal unto me, your secrecies.

Still in her thrall, as night falls - she calls,
upon the mortal flesh, lowers her welkin dress,
reality is transgressed.

Unbreak this vow, thus relinquish on death,
as the sun is setting into night herself.
I traded thee for consolating Lethe,
yet faint you linger, beckon to the moon.

I would know as soon as you were gone,
your absence would keep the vow undone.

From broken vows she weaves a shroud as trawl,
as her pale face lightens, nightfalls in the soul.

Caught Ichthus writhes in fear,
in the filth that all adheres.

Hurt, of arrow and of nail,
don't compare to the pain billows,
as she caresses and kisses the open wound,
they tear for her to feed upon,
the hymen of the soul,
the piercing of her tongue defiles,
a poisoning of blood.

I should not believe or yearn for thee.
You should not reveal unto me, your secrecies.

about

Ætherleib Austria

Mighty and marvellous is this Weakness, this
Heaven which draweth me into Her Womb, this
Dome which hideth, which absorbeth, Me.
This is The Night wherein I am lost, the Love
through which I am no longer I.
