This, My Melancholic Masquerade 05:10 lyrics buy track [The Cast][The Beautiful: Ancient queen of the earthen season and her name is Autumn][Wisdom: Lord of the ancient, majestic garden, all knowing, all seeing][Benevolence: Conscience of Autumn. The side of light and hope][The Child: Child of Autumn. Her sole, dearest companion][Deciet: Black angel of lies and misery, the dark side of Autumn][The Beautiful: ]Hear me... o valiant sister, reveal to me, this archaic imageAwakened, I find no passage within these arcane illusionsHath I but found my eternity manifested within meThis mask of shattered divinity do I now wearEndless black skies surround my freedomThe ravens cry out for my undoing, how beautiful their songs are to meHopelessly, I envision fragile winds sweeping away my spiritLeaving behind my barren epitaph, taking me to my eternity... my gardenVanquished foes, fear not my destinyTake this empty shell which is my bodyAnd free my dying brood from endless millenniaOne child, one god, one wish, one dream, one heart, one life, one final victoryO hear me... I'm in pain 3. A Dreaming Kiss 06:06 lyrics buy track Lips of glassTheir touch so deepCold, enchanting blissThe dying dreams, I take unto my loveHer embrace to carry me beyond deathI wish...A deepening woe, a shadow of lifeHindering my dying dreamsBut jus one kiss, I beg of thee my loveTo dry my ever flowing stream of tearsI wish...Unfortunate is the one who suffersFor there is no comfort in deathOnly one single hope...My love given and not taken without burdenMay we love one another freelyWithout fear of abandonmentWatch me as I die painlesslyA thousand timesThe sweet, sweet agony of my beingEver am I aloneSadness... a kiss passionate sorrowOf a time to come of divine unityO my love, take us to our ebony meadowTogether we standAmidst the moonlit for and snowI wish...Beloved darkness, to you I pleadGive but a wakeful momentOf tragic lustA kingdom of carnal pleasureA garden of crystalline dreams 4. So Sweet... the Tears 03:09 lyrics buy track Wings of sorrowLift me from sleepMy eternal spiritUneasy in its wakeMy mind like that of a childLocked withinThe tainted walls of griefI screamTo free my soul a tribute to my painAnd hatredMy imbalance, my lust for both worldsThey are two, yet they are oneFind meAnd guide meLift me from this shadowOf death 5. Commiseration in Mourning 02:27 lyrics buy track My forbidden desireShone deeply within mine eyesArchaic visions awakenedHidden beneath forgotten memoriesSeemingly endless phantomsParadingDevilish apparitionsDance amidst the follyOf my sleeping dramaI hear their criesBathing in moonlightThis lascivious breed I scornMy raven skies embellishedWith traces of bloodless depravityI speak of celestial adorationDivine lamentationAnd tears of infinite mourning...My utopia do I coverAnd hate being my truest form of loveMy nemesis unmaskedMy own face do I seeTorn in silenceI hath seen the majestic beautyOf darkened landscapes and ivory gatesO what fools can they not see I am lostEndless battles they fight for my soulNo pity, no comfort do I now askLet me suffer alone in my own miseryMy children shall never abandon mePoor souls can they not see they are mineA dying rose do I now give to each of themAn eternity of my love and deathOrnamental disgrace as they envisionTheir dying savior before meAs his children to forever become mineAshen mortalityA faceless entity within themHow is it that I feelTheir saddened wishes?Time passes... dreams die...And I silently kiss away their lives 6.
