Funeral in Carpathia - Be Quick or Be Dead Version

Lyrics

Candelabra snuffed, prey - silhouette wedded
 Nightfall take my hand
 Seduce me with silky timbred limbs
 Grant me thy dark command
 Over the peaks framing tapestries
 Of thick forest, dusk has filled
 With Lucifugous kisses enwreathed in mist
 Creeping like violations from the shadows to kill
 Lucretia is my love in vein
 When thy tears bleed sweeter
 Than the midsummer rain?
 Bewinged, infested belfries
 Toll o'er the sobbing throng
 A writhe of lethargic, terrored nudes
 Whipped and welted 'neath the barbed windsong...
 (In sadean paradise ancestral legacies linger on...)
 I am He, the crowned and conquering darkness
 Satan robed in ecumenical filth
 Livid Bacchus sustained by bridal echelons of slyph
 This wintry eve when the snow glistens deep
 And sharpened turrets wed the jewelless skies
 I shrug off the shroud of preternatural sleep
 Embroided by these words Malaresia scribed
 "Beauty slept and angels wept for her immortal soul
 In this repose, all evil chose to claim her for their very own"
 Carpathia, the pleasured dead speak of her
 In necromantic tongue when ambered daylights are done
 Masturbating in their graves on her zenith to come...
 (Never leave me)
 This catafalque night when awed stars report
 Their absence from the heavenly brow
 Crippled seraph shalt cower in illustrious courts
 Whilst the cloaked maelstorm resounds throughout
 "How the storm it fulfills my heart, though unhealed celestial knives ebonied
 And wild woods thrill yet far fiercer still Her lustre eviscerates me"
 Carpathia, priapic lovers twist in concert with Her
 Covenants are struck, jagged lightning fellates
 The path towards the castle weary innocence takes
 I rule as Master here
 Where feral hordes impart my temper
 Love sank wounded when I, betrayed
 Saw death etch cruelly, upon my lineage
 "Usher the spite seething Draconist
 And commit this world to thy ancient sovereignty"
 Erubescent veil descend
 Psalmed sunset thus portends
 And laid to rest, I now am blessed
 With this darkness... Forever more
 Supreme Vampiric Evil
 This wintry eve when the snow glistens deep
 And sharpened turrets wed the jewelless skies
 I shrug off the shroud of preternatural sleep
 Embroided by these words Malaresia scribed
 "Beauty slept and angels wept for Her immortal soul
 In this repose, all evil chose to claim her for their very own"
 Carpathia, the pleasured dead speak of her
 In necromantic tongue when ambered daylights are done
 Masturbating in their graves on her zenith to come...
 Candelabra snuffed, prey - silhouette wedded
 Nightfall take my hand
 Seduce me with silky timbred limbs
 Grant me thy dark command
 Over the peaks framing tapestries
 Of thick forest, dusk has filled
 With Lucifugous kisses enwreathed in mist
 Creeping like violations from the shadows, to kill...
