Countess of the Crescent Moon (Track Commentary) - Carnifex

Countess of the crescent moon

Heartstrings undone in death’s interlude

Grasping so tight to life’s fading light

Undone in the arms of sadistic delight

A planet without a sun

A world without light

Breath in the ash of a world once past

Lost to the stars and the gathering dust

Torn from the heavens

To death she ascended

We are the souls of the unforgiven

War of attrition

Unearthly possession

Love is the song of a dead religion

Death makes angels of us all

Less breathing, more letting go

I’ll leave you where I met you

Death’s cold kiss but I can’t forget you

Dusk turns to dawn

The next time you see me

I’ll be dead and gone

Bleed me dry

I’ll meet you on the other side

Tell me its alright

Close my eyes for the last time

Bleed me dry

Fuck all the rest

Kiss me to death

Breathe my last breath

Nightmare possessed

Kiss me to death

Fuck all the rest

Death makes angels of us all

Less breathing, more letting go

I’ll leave you where I met you

Close my eyes but I can’t forget you

Dusk turns to dawn

The next time you see me

I’ll be dead and gone
