Cradle of Filth "The Spawn Of Love And War" letra

The Spawn Of Love And War

Poets racking absinthed brainsCould never fully paint these nightsNo martyr parting from his painCould utter words so eruditeAs those she now divulged to meIn throes of passions gripIndulging latent fantasiesThat ran forked tongues along the lip

Of fate's pudendaThe twisted snake's agendaNow the world would bendTo her deadly legacy

Life's graveyard was waiting, such dizzying flightFrom the convent at All Hallows FairWithout contemplating, we fled through the nightToo blood-drunk and cunt-sated to care

The Goddess had spokenAnd woken desireIt crackled in the air around usA psychic force shimmering like fire

And on her breasts. that old necklaceThe one I snuck from the fucked AbbessWhose dirty little secret, other than meNow shone with bold intensity

Vast the power it possessedThe darkness Brought to living flesh

This treasure was ancient, taken by forceFrom an elite caste of priests in DelphiThe Templars were patient, they stayed out the courseThen fleeced their Greek hosts in their sleep

That necklace traversedVile murders and miles worseBut what was a curseTo this perverse demoness?

Legend swore it was a gift of maliceFor the maiden HarmoniaThe illegitimate spawn of love arid warJealousy made it gleam for herFor with it clasped, her looking glassWas ever beautiful and youngBut disaster choked her royal casteAnd every throat on which it hungThere madness, death and horror clung

Immortalised in mortal guiseShe was a sight for blighted eyesA plague to gladly plagiariseAnd spread like red excited kisses

She was more than meMore than wardsCould fulfil in the parlance of the angelsShe cast a spell on every cellIn my nobodyShe gave me back my tongueThat she might run it on herself

She was Lilith. she was lightI was but a parasiteBeckoned to temptationIn her velvet overtonesThrough frozen antics, dressed in whiteShe led me into paradiseNeath comets in ovationLike the Queen of winter, throned...

Pleasures archetypalThen much rarer agoniesI was a sworn discipleOf her whims and dark decrees

In Europe's hairHer spies were everywhereA sylph amongst the filthy rich and debonairHer greater planAll chaos and the all of manFor as she fed dark appetitesShe bred her children there

The spawn of love and war

Presiding over Hellfire clubsArch-masons and Agharta

The spawn of love and war

She rode the beast. her legs apartA blazing pyre starter

Life's playground elated, such dizzying sightsAnd sensations ignited her grinAs slaves celebrated her Satanic ritesWe climbed up to heaven in sin

She came to meAs she will come to YouIntoxicating in her seductionHer siren sway. devastating voodoo

Persistent, resistance is useless, foolTo this Goddess, in lust she's cruel

Beyond any measure, her pleasures will foundA perverted Eden on sacred ground

Vast the power I caressedThe darkness brought to vivid fleshAnd in it she now rules a cowered universe
