Downwards Ever from Descension by Citadel

Strewn across, the wilting lantern covers her in gray
One second, all it’ll ever take
My corroded muse of late
The eyes come jaded cold
In fever, I’ve told
There lies all that’s meant to me
In worship, I fainted on the grass
No words came to me
The final breath cleared her face
I’ll never let you go, this need I have shown
Sunlight runs from our taste
The siphoning of the ritual’s darkened blaze
I pull, pull the remains
What rips and tears belongs to me
Cannot see my morbid failure
Stitched together, you’ll have my hand to steal
A twisted favor
A tomb I’ll find exhumed
Among the wailers
Still I walk, they can’t take you from me
Shivering, I’ve crossed the river
Death’s decay, I hold on so carelessly
The beauty has froze
Grayish arms wrapped oh so closely
Cannot speak of the withered
The resonance of bone
Though dare I seek the rotted through sanctity
Perversions of the fated crow, I’ve lost the ring
To this day, I wander with her
Frolicking through haunting dithers
Bear the sight, they’ve come searching for me
In secrecy I lay, hiding you from day
Proof unforeseen
Indebted by the grief
Held from release
Your body now mine to absolve
My gift to the earth
Wandering, shambling
Why can’t you accept this face
For it is me, your once loved disgrace
A tomb for us to lie
One last taste of frozen eyes
Ensue the horrific cries
I cracked open the chest
I’ll give you part of me, you’ll live on once again
Skin wavers, in spasm comes a glare
Grim favors, my bluish heart repairs
A need without a taste
We’ll rot here without a trace
The bleak aside
There will be none to waste
Seven bodies draped from the trees
