Opeth "The Leper Affinity" lyrics

The Leper Affinity

We entered Winter once againNaked, freezing from my breathNeath the lid all limbs tucked awayThis coffin is your abode from now and onwards

Your body is mine to availSuch a tragic sight you areSlave under my creedSpurring me with those tears

I am beyond deathMidst a dreaming affinitySaving strength now, faint whispersCome erotic communion in its splendour

Fever mirrored ghostsNight time consolation, cross the lineDraw murder into artSleep inside through days

In the wake of this reliefShivering, longing for moreInsanity at it's peakLove me to my death

Lost are days of SpringYou sighted and let me in

Keep the beast insideShackled within my hideScreaming out too lateLosing to my hate

Grew together with your skinAnd paced the trails of sin

Your gaze covered with virgin snowRigid featuresIt's the shallow deeds who is to blameDeafening shrieks pierced the night

A step from oblivionMoving into the dim lightsHiding within a reverieIt was worth it for the wait alone
