lyrics

On this trip
I’m unable to see
But I feel her all the more
Under my skin

Sweet virgin lips touch me
I'll never have enough of this raping
For that minute I am her and she is me
It’s too late to awaken

I marked her body with my dirty hands and mouth
A part of me was dying in the mirror of her eyes

I feel I'm shedding my mortified wings
I feel white lily-fingers on my face to waste
I feel my existence become something destructive
But I can’t escape from this rape I’m addicted to her

She’s only fifteen yeah, yeah, yeah
She’s only fifteen
She’s only fifteen with the skin of a new-born angel

Our nudity’s
Something disorderly
For the world
For the world that killed our purity

I dress her in soiled shreds
Her beauty becomes artwork
In this wedding dress I
Made for her

I will infect her with my festering wounds
She’ll be my vicious bride, as if I’d created her from my sins.
Fallen angels everywhere around us
Dried up tears for the death of love

I feel I'm shedding my mortified wings
I feel white lily-fingers on my face to waste
I feel my existence become something destructive
But I can’t escape from this rape I’m addicted to her/to my Muse

With only one kiss
We got our ticket to Hell
For all the godless ones
We got our ticket to Hell

I’m so disgusting
With her blond hair in my hand
Just like a painting of
The dying innocence

We got our ticket to Hell
