Lyrics
How I've waited for you to come
I've been here all alone
Now that you've arrived, please stay a while
And I promise I won't keep you long
I'll keep you for fucking ever
Graze the skin with my fingertips
The brush of dead warm flesh pacifies the means
Provoking images, delicate features, so smooth
A pleasant fragrance in the light of the moon
Dance with the dead in my dreams
Listen to their hollowed screams
The dead have taken my soul
Temptation's lost all control
Simple smiles elude psychotic eyes
Lose all mind control, rationale declines
Empty eyes enslave the creations
Of placid faces and lifeless pageants
In the depths of a mind insane
Fantasy and reality are the same
Graze the skin with my fingertips
The brush of dead warm flesh pacifies the means
Incised members, ornaments on my being
Adulating the skin before me
Simple smiles elude psychotic eyes
Lose all mind control, rationale declines
Empty eyes enslave the creations
Of placid faces and lifeless pageants
Dance with the dead in my dreams
Listen to their hollowed screams
The dead have taken my soul
Temptation's lost all control
Dance with the dead in my dreams
Listen to their hollowed screams
The dead have taken my soul
Temptation's lost all control
