Epilogue (A Defiant Succumbing) Lyrics

Her rage bit deep in my flesh, though her blade not true as her flame
So my heart's slowing rhythm still beats for her as she weeps upon my chest in shame
My life sinks into my sheets. This canvas upon which I lay
holds an image of rage and desire portrayed both carnal and sinful to her soul's dismay

My fiery red angel of death did come and claim my breath

Now I die by candlelight as she runs to him to pray within the snow

Lord of light, I beseech thee. Entreat your right and claim me
Though please grant me one final gift and claim her as well while she is weak

Shrieking, come devils for me and take me away at my last breath's command
to where hellfire doth feast beyond death on black twisted dreams and the flesh of the damned

In red firelight shall our tattered forms dance in lust upon the hot winds of despair
