about
This song originally had a very different chorus, which can be heard in some of our live recordings, but I was having trouble getting it to sound good, so I ended up totally altering it.

lyrics
Death, Death, Death, comes sweeping down
Filthy Death, that leering clown
She blew in with the autumn breeze
A vibrant flower emanating beauty throughout this macabre garden of my existence
Intrigued by her glance, her smile conjured a lust within me
A new level of infatuation that delved beyond sense, beyond reason
And there, upon the foundation of our love, she knew life no more
Soon her blood will cease to flow
I can’t believe I’m watching her go
Hear me light, return her to life
Tonight
And her body, it grows so cold
And now death is all that I know
I’d kill them all to bring her to life
Tonight
Death, the spawn of Cain, has come to take her away
He has robbed her of life, a husk to rot and decay
In time, Death will come and snuff out every flame
There is no use for the light, for all love is in vain
Her image ever haunting me
Will I see her again
Love equals death equals
Pain, shattering my mind, leaking its black fluids
Painting the world a darker shade of gray
Curse of an elegiac love
So alone, yet she is everywhere
