Cradle Of Filth - Dusk And Her Embrace (Live) Lyrics






Dusk and her embrace

When the sun has swept upon the waveless lake
And the mists steal in with ease
Covened wolves arc their eerie dissonant napes
In adoration of the moon and thee

"They call as I to thee..."

And I will come, as if in dream
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen
Of vengeful, ancient breed
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies
Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I can taste thy scent by candlelight
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity...
She shall come for me

A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night
And I have ridden from the westerning light
To expend my lust
Tear away the funereal dress
Know that I will escape from my death
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress

Lo! The pale moonlight
Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline
Of mist and moth and the hunger inside
Kisses took to fever and fever, demise

"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise
My scarlet tears will run
As stolen blood and whispered love
Of fantasies undone"

Countess swathed in ebony
And snow-white balletic grace
Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish
For lust and her disgrace

Dusk and her embrace

We shall flit through the shadows
Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow
Under deady nightshade
Still warmed with the kills of afterglow

Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me
(Beneath the stars taste the death in me)
Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss
To sever thin mortality

Elizabeth
My heart is thine
Thy fragrant words
Warm within like wine...

"Let me come to thee
with eyes like Asphodel
Moon-glacing, loose desires free
To writhe under my spell"

Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I know thy scent by candlelight
Immortal flesh I yearn to share
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity
She shall come for me...

Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus
How the full embosomed fog
Imparts the night to us

    dani filth is a psycho

  2. D.... S....

    That's hilarious. They put a censor on his ass to comply with youtubes new bullshit TOS. lel
    I don't remember that being there before.

  3. S.... B....

    Its interesting how some people find old COF better. I gained interest in the band several years ago, and this year, after I saw them live I became a COF fan. As I watch this live form 98, I can say - yes, theres a lot of the elements that's define COF sound, but back then COF were a band who tried to find his own sound and place. Now they are leading band with great stage presence, so I probably find the better time to like this band, which is now.

  4. A.... S....

    Danis voice so raw back in the days.

  5. 7.... ....

    Nicholas Bastard what an amazing musician! The man play drums like is playing piano.

    a.... p....

    I didn't knew Nicholas work on Old Man's Child and tbh i only knew the band's name. I did what you say and now what can i say besides I love this man drumming,sound,style and especialy his composer skills on drums. Theres my piano coment. ( I'm not a drummer btw, i'm a bassist). Every fucking song he plays we can guess the music by only listen the drums track.Every band that this man"spend some time"imediatly got better. Again,amazing musician,drummer! Thanks for the tip,sorry for the bad english.Cheers

    a.... p....

    @andré pereira completamente de acordo contigo. E já ando a dizer essa merda há anos e anos (praticamente desde o Midian)

    a.... p....

    Jaime Nôro Desde que ele saiu,então! Sem desrespeito aos outros músicos que passaram na bateria,o gajo era/é o maior.

    a.... p....

    @andré pereira o gajo é um talento do caraças. Há muita malta que elogia o trabalho dele noutras bandas mais tarde, mas eu acho q ele nessa fase já se estava a deixar levar naquela da corrida para ver quem era mais rápido. Durante o tempo de Cradle o gajo tinha um estilo extremamente refinado e dinâmico. Só era rápido quando tinha de ser. Devias checkar um podcast do Stuart Anstis (aquele guitarrista alto da altura do Dusk e do Cruelty) que anda aí na net. O gajo fala sobre toda a experiência que teve com os Cradle nesses que para mim foram os melhores anos da banda.

    a.... p....

    Jaime Nôro Para mim tambem foram os melhores anos da banda! Aliás Cradle nessas alturas que referiste tinha uma formação de luxo! Apesar de adorar o homem na bateria,nunca o segui muito(ou nada para ser honesto)nas outras bandas que ele esteve. Curtia mesmo era o gajo em Cradle! Desde da criatividade,o som"limpo",ao estilo refinado e dinâmico que dizes e bem,é/era um gosto ouvir aqueles primeiros albuns de Cradle. Vou tentar ver isso do Stuart,obrigado pela dica.

  55. D.... B....

    Some how I got something pink on my middle finger lol

  56. f.... ....

    they were once number one

  57. d.... ....

    The best alineation in the COF history

  74. R.... b....

    I've seen them at their best (HMH 2003) and their worst (melkweg 2014)!!!!

  75. F.... W....

    I was on yt for some Deftones and Soulfly, how the hell did i get to this gothic devil shit.

    F.... W....

    Fire Works better than that other bullshit you mentioned

  76. N.... o....

    This was the best CoF line-up. Dani with his incredible voice. Please turn back the clock. I'm glad, i have seen them with this line up a few times

  77. T.... S....

    Drums at 5:30.... OMFG

    T.... S....

    @Dai Kil Weird that they'd call out "cheating" during his time in CoF but not Dimmu...

    T.... S....

    @XMorbidReignX lol cheating wtf? does he pull a third arm when no one is looking or what am I missing here? Those fills are like 1% of what Barker can do while thinking about what the dinner will be.

    T.... S....

    @Compendyum The comments above mine. "He's cheating. I have it on VHS" But if you go around and look, everyone says he's cheating, somehow. Maybe triggers? I have no idea what they're talking about. But, they only ever say he's cheating while he was in CoF but not while he was in Dimmu. It's weird.

    T.... S....

    @XMorbidReignX The only cheater I know is the drummer for Infant Anihilator that, for some reason edits his drum videos.

    T.... S....

    @Compendyum And he barely counts as a cheater. Sure professionalism with videos and editing is kind of expected, but he's putting stuff out on youtube, presumably, he wants it to look good. Like, how do you even cheat at drumming beyond auto-drummer programs?

  78. G.... A....

    monsier filth..... saffron's curse!!!

  79. T.... ....

    Almost 20 years ago!

    T.... ....

    TheMorbidSenses Dani still sounds the same too \m/

    Nick Barker performance on drums is insane! This band was so much better back then🤘🤘🤘

    A.... L....

    Nick barker was also in BLINK 182 right??

    A.... L....

    John Dee

    That would be Travis Barker (American drummer). Nick Barker (English drummer) is a whole different thing. Both great drummers in their own respective domain.

    A.... L....

    Yes and in Dimmi Borgia he was INSANE👍🏼

    A.... L....

    Have you checked Cryptoriana, their newest album how awesome the album is?

    A.... L....

    Erlandsson is a pretty awesome drummer too...

  86. G.... ....
