Avernus - A Delicate Tracery Of Red lyrics

rate me

The imperfections of earthly beauty mean nothing to me as I am swallowed by my art<br />

Posthumous, and thus greater will be your beauty<br />

I will expose the masterpiece within your reviled form<br />

A delicate tracery of red...<br />

...as I inflict upon you carvings of arcane design<br />

Convulutions of lacerated tissue<br />

I will shape a cruel and permanent smile on those sweetly curved lips<br />

Renderings of utmost lucidity<br />

With a loving violence the blade lingers over your skin<br />

A delicate tracery of red...<br />

...I will release the beauty trapped beneath your skin<br />

Once you must have smiled so sweetly<br />

The world endless before your eyes<br />

I miss you though I've never known you<br />

But I can and will tell the end of your story<br />

In the intracacies of these lines<br />

The cut of your features<br />

Smeared beneath my fingertips<br />

My breath coming quicker<br />

Aroused by the revelations of my incisions line<br />

Agonized, the line of your brow<br />

I relieve it's tension by a cut of a tendon<br />

Beautific in darkest repose<br />

I delineate the course of your sorrows<br />

Incarnidine convolutions and conflicting strokes of carnelian<br />

Rich, trailing behind the sharpened edge<br />

Fluid welling up like some purified crimson wine<br />

I exalt you by my atrocities<br />

A delicate tracery of red...<br />

...with your tortured flesh I aspire to approach the sublime through...<br />

...a delicate tracery of red<br />

Overcome by a great and sinister joy<br />

In this, my most tender of cruelties<br />

Forms of perfected aspect exposed from within<br />

Animate is my medium, you writhing as my canvas<br />

I revel in your soiled femininity<br />

As the razors dance in your deepest and most secret place<br />

Your screams were the purest of melodies<br />

The low moans you emit arouse my disgust<br />

You
