Текст песни Cradle of Filth - Nocturnal Supremacy <br/> Nocturnal Supremacy<br /><br /><br /><br />Weak midnight promises of love<br /><br />Were wept upon Her grave<br /><br />( )<br />And shunned by stars above<br /><br />In mortal life lurks my dismay<br /><br />An Angel stole my heart<br /><br />and Death took Her away<br /><br /><br /><br />She sleeps beyond the grace of god<br /><br />A dreaming beauty<br /><br />If wishes could only fray that bond<br /><br />The dead would sing for me...<br /><br /><br /><br />Twelth moon arose with ghostly voice<br /><br />A poet's serenade<br /><br />Her name a whisper 'pon my lips<br /><br />And lo, Rorasa came<br /><br /><br /><br />Fear me not my grieving King<br /><br />Funereal in breath<br /><br />The secrets of the dark I know<br /><br />And thus, we shall cheat Death"<br /><br /><br /><br />My promises wrought though despondence that night<br /><br />Have delivered me gifts from the grave<br /><br />Rorasa enshadowed and eternal life<br /><br />Never a Devil so vain<br /><br />The Angel is fallen, for I thought her lost<br /><br />And no heaven would silence the pain<br /><br />Teach me these secrets, the sensual frost<br /><br />Desire for warm blood again<br /><br /><br /><br />Princess lay down thy florid cheek<br /><br />In drunken splendour<br /><br />Tonight rare regal fate has cast<br /><br />The wolves among the sheep<br /><br /><br /><br />Dark nature clasp my soul<br /><br />Around Her throat mine arms enfold<br /><br />To sleep, perchance to dream<br /><br />And then...<br /><br />To dusk and flesh ascend<br /><br /><br /><br />The Sun descends, magenta spirits fill the skies<br /><br />and wreak erotic maladies where sex and Death abide<br /><br />From writhing tides where gothick siren weave their song to<br /><br />shore<br /><br />Through the ashes of the battlefields where ravens and angels<br /><br />war<br /><br />As phantoms we have fled the basilisk of day<br /><br />To rise as phoenix taloned, nightly taking prey<br /><br /><br /><br />We rule like the red and risen moon upon the sea<br /><br />The stars of judgement silent, for we share joyous<br /><br />Eternity<br /><br />Damnation<br /><br />Salvation<br /><br />Stigmata plague<br /><br /><br /><br />The wine of Bacchus flows<br /><br />Listen to the thunder rage<br /><br /><br /><br />Deceivers dragged before their cross<br /><br />I am He that vanquished Death<br /><br />And bore the sting of loss<br /><br />What vulgar christ will unprise my grasp?<br /><br />His temple, ruined, burns<br /><br />And sweet Rorasa laughs<br /><br /><br /><br />I am enamoured and imparadised<br /><br />To catch the fires dancing profanely in her eyes<br /><br />"I will crush them all<br /><br />If this holds thy delight"<br /><br />Rather dead forever than to lose her<br /><br />Nymph-lascivious Aphrodite
