Syphilis - Fleshgod Apocalypse

«My beloved king

I compose this letter to you

In the sleepless nightmare hours of the night

Wandering through cold empty corridors

I can hear these walls

Screaming your magnificent name and

I can find no peace»

I have to protect my breed

No matter who I love, no matter how I feel

It’s in my pure drops, it’s in my royal seed

My great love don’t let me fall apart

Desire is killing me

Don’t you let me drown in tears

Don’t cry

You know it’s a hopeless wish

No future for us, but only bitter tears

Preserve your frail heart

From an unending bleed

«Oh lord

How long shall I bear the burden

Of my tormenting silence

And live my life in the shadows

This is a frightful conflict, this is not life

Please, come and take me

Please, my love, please»

I will never come again

I forbid this love forever

As time has come to forget

And leave it to the past

So make the right choice to save us

Before it’s too late

Can’t soil my blood for nothing

And waste my heritage

Can’t blacken my name

And lose my purity
