C A T H E D R A L S ☆ Want My Love

I’m a killer, cold and wrathful
Silent sleeper, I’ve been inside your bedroom
I’ve murdered half the town
left you love notes on their headstones
I’ll fill the graveyards until I have you.
Moonlight walking, I smell your softness
carnivorous and lusting to track you down among the pines.
I want you stuffed into my mouth
hold you down and tear you open, live inside you –
love, I’d never hurt you.
But I’ll grind against your bones until our marrows mix
I will eat you slowly…

[Chorus]
Oh, the horror of our love
never so much blood pulled through my veins.
Oh, the horror of out love… never so much blood

I wake in terror, blackbirds screaming
dark cathedrals spilling midnight on the altars
I’m your servant, my immortal
pale and perfect, such unholy heaving –
the statues close their eyes, the room is changing
break my skin and drain me.
Ancient language, speak through fingers
the awful edges where you end and I begin
inside your mouth I cannot see –
there’s catastrophe in everything I’m touching
as I sweat I crush you.
And I hold your beating chambers until they beat no more
you die like angels sing…

[Chorus]
Oh, the horror of our love
never so much blood pulled through my veins.
Oh, the horror of out love… never so much blood

You’re a ghost love, nightgown flowing
your body blue and walking along the continental shelf
you are a dream among the sharks
beautiful and terrifying, lit and restless
we dance in dark suspension.
And you bury me in the ocean floor beneath you
where they’ll never hear us scream…

[Chorus]
Oh, the horror of our love
never so much blood pulled through my veins.
Oh, the horror of out love… never so much blood
