Píseň: Forgive Me Father (I Have Sinned)

Interpret:
Cradle of Filth
Album:
Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in me again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone


Storm clouds roll out overhead
Above their master
End of all flesh, end of all days
Love predicts disaster
In her precious ways


I was burned, a sacerdotal soul
By the Demon Queen of my dreams
Infatuation turned to total control
Her rose was sweet
But her thorns were barbarous


"Love me
And worship me
I'll lavish you and ravish you
Fulfil all wishes and fetishes too


Many never want to see
Many never want to know
The truth behind their fantasies
Their deepest needs
Let alone be shown them"


Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in me again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone


Nothing left to do but run


Sodom rolls out modern death
On casters ever faster
End of all Flesh, End of all Days
The stars predict disaster
In her bastard ways


"Love me
And worship me
I'll nurture you and hurt you too
Fulfil all wishes for my sad Aladdin"


She comes to me
Like a sandstorm in an hourglass
A whirlwind of desire
I am hypnotised
To think beyond the pale
Beyond heart-stopping eyes
And sopping thighs
I'm won't to fail


A wicked spell cast over me
Addicted to her utterly
Despite the horrors that gestate
Beneath the beautiful


"I'll grant you life beyond your ken
The envy of all other men
Whatever vice will make you spend
Eternity with me"


Satan's concubine
She makes her crime scenes shine from heaven


Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in me again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
