Lilith
Saint Avangeline
Where the glow of August never dies, in metal mirrors our bodies rise Your claws scraping on tender skin, destroy my form, begin again Draw guileless gore from my bare veins, you whisper that you're glad I came Then in my neck you sink your fangs, and watch my body writhe in flames I sing Tempt god's wrath And fire my corpse Our bone are dry Our hope is drained We are cut off There's no escape Our youth expires Nothing remains You said there's something beautiful, the way I fall, I fall apart Our shallow breaths and tangled hair, my aching, beating, bleeding heart I draw my blade and hold you down I let your black blood stream I let it creep down my ivory chest, you watch my eyes gleam mean I say Tempt god's wrath And fire my corpse Our bone are dry Our hope is drained We are cut off There's no escape Our youth expires Nothing remains Where the glow of August never dies You said there's something beautiful The way I fall apart
