Forgive Me Father (I Have Sinned) - Cradle Of Filth

Forgive me Father, I have sinned

Darkness put her painted claws in me again

Her vision drowns like service wine

Whispered kisses so divine

I was blessed but now I’ve come undone

Storm clouds roll out overhead

Above their master

End of all flesh, end of all days

Love predicts disaster

In her precious ways

I was burned, a sacerdotal soul

By the Demon Queen of my dreams

Infatuation turned to total control

Her rose was sweet

But her thorns were barbarous

«Love me

And worship me

I’ll lavish you and ravish you

Fulfil all wishes and fetishes too

Many never want to see

Many never want to know

The truth behind their fantasies

Their deepest needs

Let alone be shown them"

Forgive me Father, I have sinned

Darkness put her painted claws in me again

Her vision drowns like service wine

Whispered kisses so divine

I was blessed but now I’ve come undone

Nothing left to do but run

Sodom rolls out modern death

On casters ever faster

End of all Flesh, End of all Days

The stars predict disaster

In her bastard ways

«Love me

And worship me

I’ll nurture you and hurt you too

Fulfil all wishes for my sad Aladdin»

She comes to me

Like a sandstorm in an hourglass

A whirlwind of desire

I am hypnotised

To think beyond the pale

Beyond heart-stopping eyes

And sopping thighs

I’m won’t to fail

A wicked spell cast over me

Addicted to her utterly

Despite the horrors that gestate

Beneath the beautiful

«I'll grant you life beyond your ken

The envy of all other men

Whatever vice will make you spend

Eternity with me»

Satan’s concubine

She makes her crime scenes shine from heaven

Forgive me Father, I have sinned

Darkness put her painted claws in me again

Her vision drowns like service wine

Whispered kisses so divine

I was blessed but now I’ve come undone
