lyrics

Iv felt this a hundred times.
Tonight is the first night
The night I act on this necromantic lust
Endless sleep will be tainted
Make this lifeless corpse whole again
Skin tightens as I pry the lid
See you in your restless slumber

I never want this day to come again
To the grave this requiem has been sung
this was not my choice, Nor was it yours
lost love in nights past, tell me this isn't true
Holding your head, I kiss your rotting neck
I never want this day to come again

You were not meant for this life, throes of death take over
My eyes are set on my offering, to the unholy one
I offer you this child, for take it as my bastard song
To this blackened night we bow and we serve
Along with this offering, I give you my unholy form
Now I lay with my deceased, Embraced the end, This Requiem shall be sung
