Salute The Sanguine
VV
Death come blow me a kiss through this cathedral of cards
Remind me how to decrypt the cypher written in the blood of my heart
Salute the sanguine
Red in tooth and claw it has to feel
Salute the sanguine
Ferociously beautiful you are
Love your lips move, but I can't hear you sing in my citadel of scars
The ghost of you shimmers within, revealing what is lost
Salute the sanguine
Red in tooth and claw it has to feel
Salute the sanguine
Ferociously beautiful you are
Here come the tears
Along with terms of endearment distorted by fear
So sincere it hurts
Salute the sanguine, sanguine
I'm screaming your name
Salute the sanguine, sanguine
No heart bleeds in vain
I salute the sanguine (I salute the sanguine)
I salute the sanguine (I salute the sanguine)
Hear me scream your name again and again
Come salute the sanguine (come salute the sanguine)
Come salute the sanguine (come salute the sanguine)
All hearts kneel before your grace
Dreams in black and blue
Heartbeats a morse of doom
Spectral I love you's
We bloom in gloom
Morning's scarlet hues
All tomorrows entombed
Desire's cruelest tunes
We bloom in gloom
