-- oh - my dearest; the sweet music in the ear -
-- albeit, daresay I, the lullaby of an everso dark sleep.

my precious,
likest thou what emergeth yon the distant?
the throbbing and breathing of life's machinery!

-- wanion its oh so damndest soul!
-- with the devil-instrument it we shall reap,
-- after the banquet obscur'd in our thole,
-- its blood so lovingly across our faces smear

-- lord of carnage,

lady of carnage,

-- one funeral maketh many,

swarm god's acres;

-- two indeed more:
-- blest treat of delight -

give praise for the blood it bled,
grant a rose for the dead! -- grant a rose for the dead!

enraptur'd by the timeless beauty of the
shadowsphere,
we two abide the overlook'd time of the watch.

-- make this cherish'd feast last
-- but until the new dawn ascendeth.

be still - harken the lure of night!
bale in each its damndest shadow,
cloth me in night, ne'er fell rue,
in its face, behold! naught save grue.

pray, ne'er come hither daylight! -- wane to dust the wight,
velvet darkness, thee we ourselves bestow! -- misery it in velvet fright

der spiegel,
in dem ich die schatten seh';
das schwarze licht, welches mein schlo' verschlie�t
und drau�en, der teufel und die schwarze hexe:
singendes, tanzendes ihm verfallenes wesen.
h�rst du denn nicht wie der wolf heult?!,
doch das blut sprengt meine adern -
jeder strahl f�hrt mich dem untergang n�her:
ich sp�re, wie berauscht ich bin,
die sonne scheint nie wieder diesem spiegel,
der mond aber leuchtet meinem k�rper;
staub - ich trinke das verfluchte wasser,
blut - ich liebte diesen rosengarten,
ich krieche durch diese spitzen dornen,
mein geist lebt in der dunkelheit -
schwarz; - das nichts; - unendlich;
erbe des b�sen -
gott klopft an meine t�r,
und der spiegel
zerbricht.

You and A Rose for the Dead

Theatre of Tragedy

Theatre of Tragedy were a Norwegian band formed in Stavanger in 1994, widely associated with early gothic/doom metal and the “beauty and the beast” vocal contrast. Their catalogue is frequently discussed for its major stylistic shifts, from doom-tinged gothic metal into more electronic and industrial/pop-leaning territory, and later releases featuring a new female vocalist after Liv Kristine’s departure.
