lyrics

By a planetary alignment
The way the maker designed it
By the pale light of the moon
Shining at last through my tomb
By the clues that rang through her head
She traded in her blues for red
Soon we shall be wed
She came to wake the dead

As the living are thrilled to reflect
On the terrible black mirror of death
It pleases the dead to be seen
It gives them a reason to breathe
This maiden was lost to her world
A broken shell of a girl
So I beckoned her here to my crypt
So she might give me a kiss

Joined beneath the web
That the spider spun
Now glistening with dew
In the morning sun
The last age is over
A new one's begun
It's been a long night
But now, it is done!

By a love far more ancient
Than the earth or the sun
From one there is many
Each longing for one
Born of the fires
That eternally burn
By this maiden's kiss
I have returned!
