Artist/Band: Cradle Of Filth
Lyrics for Song: Funeral In Carpathia
Lyrics for Album: Dusk And Her Embrace [1996]



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...



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...
