Thyestean Feast - White Widow lyrics

Skins of mask are flayed and torn

Abrasions and scars hide face forlorn

Borrowed sunshine seems profane

Sorrow drains frozen emotions

Pale feathers eluding, soothing

Portraits of grief abjured, slayed

All your memories, platitudes chained

Scorches of grace never heal

Denial of rancor my angel

Calls forth dearth of reason.

Gilded path to mind's eye damnation

Pure white chemical paradise

Through dark colonnades, ruins of feelings

Your kindred pain, perifidous guide

Theatre of mortals, yearn to know

White widow

Dreams that sought graven image

Now they praise the christ of euphoria

Stabbed cygnet with stained wings

White widow

Emotion turmoil, the war in us

Parasite touch brings warmth of lust

Wounds of soul smile crimson within

Light lingers, as the rapture grows dim

Treason in kingdoms of bereaved pathos

Feed the flames!

With bonds of sacred love we burn

Bleed for flames!
