All of my girlfriends are dead... are dead...
My furious lovers their Spirits all have fled
I too will leave this false stage behind...
I sing at the World's ending and I rage at all

You bite the bullet and you eat the pain
You lick the wounds and dress the shame
And wait and wait and wait for a Love that never came...

Black Skies engraving the Mourning's begun
Blood Diamonds forming my Chosen Doomed One
Burial Visions blonde days now long gone
Justine's Affliction was my Grail Wound Won

Pass me the absinthe...listen.... Now...
I live on the Borderlands
A place of Eternal Dusk
Violence invigorates Fate's failed trust
Loneliness is complete
Injustice binds deep
Every aspiration meets with cold defeat...

You bite the bullet and you eat the pain
You lick the wounds and dress the shame
And wait and wait and wait for a Love that never came...
