"Together In Death" lyrics

You were too pure for this ugly world
You couldn't bear to see another day
So I stand at this lonely grave in which you lay
And in slate I trace the contours of your name

Ever since you left, my life is meaningless
I would give it all for just one last caress
I long to be together
Together in death

Stone angels weep as I harrow deep
To breathe your scent of sweet cadaverine
Your lips of blue, your skin waxen white by candlelight
Ah, you have made of me a creature of the night

Ever since you left, I've cursed my every breath
I dream to dwell with you in nothingness
Let us lie once more, together
Together in death

I'd throw myself into the abyss
All for the taste of one last kiss
You drove a nail into my coffin heart
But even death won't do us part, yeah

Lay us to rest, buried at double depth
Oh, take these bones and let them coalesce
We will always be together
Together in death

Though our two mortal forms may deliquesce
Our forms may deliquesce
Our love will outlast our failing flesh
Outlast our failing flesh
And we will always be together
Together in death
Together in death
