Scatter the ashes and wither the rose
kissed in the mist where the cold wind blows
Crimson lust whispers awaken the night
tasting the warmth of the sad lonely bite
Scarlet the cowl of the demon that calls
lost in the vision of wings as she falls
down from the starlit kissed heaven of dreams
reflecting flame wishes from darkened eyes gleam
spinning in nightmare slow dancing designs
losing the shadows in moonlights decline
haze of black ashes in autumns embrace
cast in the hunger, obsessed with the taste
visions of loneliness calling your name
caught in the cold stare to struggle in vain
tangled in tears and the vines of dark passion
razor tip licks tease this fatal attraction
screams of the morning star sear through the melody
heartbeat sweet memories dying in ecstasy
caught in the waves of an ocean of violence
perilous lost pleasure in romantic decadence
peel from the depths of your soul all restraint
with the smile of a devil and the eyes of a saint
last caress to surrender all the innocence lost
in the haze of the mist and the chill of the frost
you awake with the fire of the gold autumn light
and the sensuous memory of wings in the night
