[00:01.034]Hear Me now
[00:03.915]All crimes should be treasured
[00:06.052]If they bring thee pleasure somehow
[00:56.713]Maleficent in dusky rose
[00:59.889]Gathered satin lapped her breasts
[01:01.309]Like blood upon the snow
[01:03.145]A tourniquet of Topaz
[01:04.512]Glistened at her throat
[01:09.414]Awakening, pulled from the tomb
[01:12.127]Her spirit freed eclipsed the Moon
[01:15.390]That she outshone as a fallen star
[01:18.321]A regal ornament from a far flung nebular
[01:29.329]Her likeness hung in the black gallery
[01:32.592]Commanding unease
[01:34.596]Demanding of death to breathe
[01:51.120]Midst the whirl and daylight fauna
[01:53.132]Of society at court
[01:54.905]Elizabeth bedazzled, her presence sought applause
[01:58.698]Though her torchlit shadow
[02:00.443]Thrown upon damp cellar walls
[02:02.400]Greeted nothing but despair
[02:04.010]From slaves her nights enthralled
[02:06.474]Thirteen winter solstices had shown her path
[02:10.956]That the dark had marked its dominion
[02:13.514]Spaying the confessor whose caresses she'd known
[02:16.297]As whipcord in the house of dog
[02:17.959](her cold cunt meat on holy bone)
[02:20.410]Raped of faith
[02:22.156]She now embraced
[02:23.491]The narcissistic unrest frozen on the mirror's face
[02:27.480]With this disdain, inside these veins
[02:30.742]Highborn wanton that she was
[02:32.021]She sought to keep what age would claim
[02:34.750]Her soul was sold and for this toll
[02:37.717]Reeking pyres ever smouldered
[02:39.330]On the whims of one so in control
[02:42.055]Elizabeth, mysterious
[02:45.243]Cruelty brought thee orchids
[02:46.591]From the bowels of the Abyss
[03:02.413]Once upon atrocity when midwitches stifled cries
[03:06.403]And carved abortive runes in reddened wombs
[03:11.204]Exhumed by scrying eyes
[03:14.097]Madness came upon her
[03:14.922]Like an amourous lover's seed
[03:16.083]Lifesblood splashed upon her skin
[03:16.241]In gouts torture unleashed
[03:18.463]And to her dead reflection
[03:20.116]'Twas as if her pallor gleamed
[03:22.661]Like an Angel's warmed by candles
[03:24.327]Where erotic stains had cleaved
[03:26.315]So demons dragged this libertine
[03:27.767]Lusts screaming for release
[03:29.866]Upon the flesh of maidens preened
[03:46.663]As canvas for caprice
[03:47.535]Exacting obeisance
[03:48.954]Her gaze held a seance
[03:49.226]Of spirits too trapped under glass to commune
[03:52.463]A sleeter mistress than Luna
[03:54.106]Whose threats to consume her
[03:56.042]Met with torments giving vent to her swoon
[04:05.828]Flat on her back
[04:07.201]Pack-prey for the reams
[04:08.791]Of verses and curses
[04:10.261]That haunted her dreams
[04:12.356]Midnightmare chimed
[04:13.658]Thirteen in her mind
[04:15.178]A disciple of scars
[04:16.694]Branded years hissed behind
[04:18.861]Ridden split-thighed
[04:20.427]By the Father of lies
[04:21.821]An ovation of wolves
[04:23.253]Blushed the skies as they writhed
[04:31.800]But Heaven is never forever
[04:34.683]She came, a spent storm
[04:35.899]From the clouds
[04:44.646]Leaving serpents in office
[04:46.606]Inside every gate
[04:48.216]To lick righteous holes
[04:50.193]Blinding Lords to the fate
[04:52.143]Of virgins forced naked
[04:53.941]To defile on bent knees
[04:56.056]Hacked and racked backwards
[04:57.589]Menses choking their pleas
[05:07.306]More, whore, more
[05:10.296]Twitching make me wet with thee
[05:11.927]Carcass rub me raw
[05:29.762]And to her dead reflection
[05:31.056]Twas as if her pallor gleamed
[05:33.289]Like an Angel's warmed by candles
[05:35.221]Where erotic stains had cleaved
[05:37.269]So demons dragged this libertine
[05:39.005]Lusts screaming for release
[05:41.127]Upon the flesh of maidens preened
[05:43.325]As canvas for caprice
[05:58.159]Raped of faith, she now embraced
[06:31.312]The narcissistic unrest frozen on the mirror's face
[06:35.283]With this disdain, inside these veins
[06:38.468]Highborn wanton that she was
[06:40.138]She sought to keep what age would claim
[06:42.673]Her soul was sold and for this toll
[06:45.275]Reeking pyres ever smouldered
[06:47.189]On the whims of one so in control
[06:49.500]Elizabeth, mysterious.
[06:52.711]Cruelty brought thee orchids
[06:54.260]From the bowels of the Abyss
[07:01.597]From the bowels of the Abyss
