Necropolis Kiss
Lyrics
Verse 1
Hasten, love, to the charnel deep
where silence festers, thick and sweet
Exiled from flesh, bone grafts to bone
your ribs splinter rites where my heart once beat
Pre-Chorus
The air congeals—a septic nectar—
your scalpel touch unspools my breath
This tomb-bound vow, our carved devotion
as nightshade veins eclipse what's left
Chorus
Your cadaverous grip turns my nerves obsidian
a fossil choir sings "ashes to arsenic."
Veins unspool—black honey, black fire
our bodies entwined in rust and wire
Verse 2
Drape the bier with asphodel roots
their pallid veins pulse with decay
Prepare the trough where our marrow melts—
a baptism in carrion steel
a communion of congealed zeal
Chorus
Your cadaverous grip turns my nerves obsidian
a fossil choir sings "ashes to arsenic."
Veins unspool—black honey, black fire
our bodies entwined in rust and wire
Verse 3
Your dowry—a womb of plague-lit prayer
where flies waltz in convulsive despair
No mourners remain, just carrion and dust
as our tongues decay to funeral rust
Bridge
Apostles of rust anoint our communion—
their breath a sulfur dirge, calcified and cold
In charnel chapels of hollowed bone
midnight roots pierce marrow from spine
They drink the dregs of skeletal wine
transfusing decay through veins of the divine
What remains of voice now hymns the abyss—
one guttural note, one putrid kiss
Outro
Exhale your last into my hollowed bones
where rot turns mist, where silence moans
No resurrection, no chains to sever—
we eclipse the stars in death forever
