My Dying Bride - The Return To The Beautiful Lyrics






Oh beautiful earth
For too long you have been silent
Touch me once again
The dark ground lies cold

Et gelidus hoc voluntas firmamentum

Hark
Yes it is I
The fever of mankind
Urges whorish as ever
I am the new Christ
Silence yourself
Nunquam
Pity me not

Silence yourself
You are powerless here
Pityful one
Give back the sun
Souls will mourn
In this unending season of darkness
Beware, ravaged one
Mine is the might

If you're feeble, turn away
No dagger glints in my hand
Technique is secret
She have herself to me

Liar
Please leave
I think I'll close my eyes now
The first sunshine was mine
Look for me among the flowers
Sleeping with the earth
My Dying Bride
The pity I fashion
Through a rain of tears

A tragic opus
Immeasurable loss
Tearful I rest
Bask in my growing sorrow

The females is such exquisite hell
Lay my obscure hands upon you
Macabre, erotica, passion
Even in death, beauty is with you

I extol you with loud praise
You will grace my procession
Why shouldn't I indulge
In my own desires?
Bare your breasts to slow kisses

Away bastard dog
Down from your throne
A dagger glints in my hand
Am I afraid?
You'll perish alone

Nunquam
Nunquam
Am I afraid?
Ha

Pray to me
Blasphemy
Cry on me
Die on me
Let me out
Let me out!
Let me out!!!

Suffer in your nakedness
Before your dark art
The filth and the stench of you
Is hell in itself

I cry for you
Your reign is over now
The sunlight will return
To this once petrified earth
Ego deicere tu pereant

Make me faint with unending kisses
My passions have all returned
Warm my trembling hands
We're scope for the tragedians

I can see from your smile
You're not here for the sunset

  1. N.... M....

    I remember taping this on the local college radio station during the "chainsaw rock" program...loved this song since then...probably 93 or 94???

  2. G.... T....

    Aaron just had the best growl vocals in extreme metal. Best voice and delivery

  3. J.... M....

    The fever of mankind
    Urges whorish as ever

    Now we see

  4. Z.... ....

    Words cant describe my love, respect and admiration for this exceptionally awesome band.

  5. Y.... H....

    The Return of the Beautiful is a masterpiece of doom. my favorite one

  6. A.... ....

    If death had a sound....

  7. i.... ....

    Cannot believe its been 26 years since I first heard this song, its still one of my all time favourites. When it was released I hadnt heard anything arranged in this way before, it was like a secret world being revealed.

  8. T.... A....

    she gave herself to me

    LIAR

    she gave herself to me

    LIAR

    she gave herself to me

    LIAR

    AARON IS GOD

    The Best ever of Doom, my favorite of MDB! Gorgeous!

  10. M.... d....

    BRAZIL 2018

  11. k.... ....

    25 years have passed (what?!) since this masterpiece graced my ears and it STILL gives me the chills. Every time.
    Unmatched.

  12. A.... B....

    "Souls will mourn in this unending season of darkness".

    Count me in.

  13. A.... ....

    This album combines elegance and a genuinely unsettling, creepy atmosphere so well.

  14. M.... ....

    So many shiver inducing moments of power and beauty in this MDB classic. One of the most intriguing songs of their career I think and probably my favourite of their entire catalog.

  15. R.... K....

    Perfect piece.... Nostalgic, great to remember the beginning of 00's such a beautiful poetry and doooom violin....

  16. E.... S....

    This got me into DM as a kid.

    E.... S....

    Same!!!! This and ANATHEMA's "Crestfallen"

  17. J.... B....

    doom death Awesome even in death beauty is with you

  18. B.... ....

    "Who are you, that lies dying right beside the river?" Gives me goosebumps everytime.

    "I can see from your smile you're not here for the sunset." Those last words terrify me. 

  19. F.... o....

    I love seeing these comments. Often I feel alone in my love for MDB

  20. D.... ....

    Manuscript was good, better than the last full length I feel, but we need a new MDB album with such epic, death/doom classics!!!

  21. J.... L....

    i totally agree with you, this is the song that i was searching for because i distinctly remember the words so yes this is the best track i think ever recorded in my eyes of any band ever, the return of the beautiful wow what a cool name too :) i used to listen to this over 20 years ago and i felt like i struck gold , i never thought people would get a chance to hear it, and i couldn't believe how talented MDB is, they are still the best band ever to me and always will be :)

    J.... L....

    Yeah I remember also, I was already a Paradise Lost fan of Lost Paradise, Gothic, Shades of God..saw them live 1992 and they sounded awesome, and then I saw the video of Symphonaire Infernus et Spera Empyrium and nearly wetted the pants...and then they kept pounding for a few years. As The Flower Withers, Trinity and Turn Loose The Swans were all masterpieces...then they started to lose that evil intensity and focus and raw power mixed with artsy class and beauty and oddball baudelairean worldview which was just stunning coming from a metal band...My Dying Bride and Anathema and some others from Norway and Sweden among others brought this art school, classic decadence, romantic poetry in brilliant and rawest kind of metal. Therfore they still evoke respect and inspiration and praise...it felt so refreshing and new that anyone did it, and My Dying Bride and Anathema did for a while...

    J.... L....

    They are not only talented, but just gifted with something I would compare with da Vinci and his many talents. A bit exaggerated, but it goes in that direction. I mean, who would dare to use violins and bad-ass riffs within their musical repertoire? They did and it works like a charm...

  22. J.... L....

    i agree with you this song is the best classic ever and its still my favorite song ever, no band from today or any time at all can compare to MDB as they are what talent looks like and sounds like, they are a one of a kind original concept and truly a gifted band, they are the best ever and no one compares at all to them in my eyes.:)

  23. J.... L....

    sorry i do not agree at all, everyone tries to categorize everything and that cannot be done with my dying bride, i have listened to them from the beginning and they are not in any category and never have been, they are just a band with their own unique ancient sound, that no other band has and its not goth or new wave or death metal or any of that at all, everyone nowadays likes to put things into boxes and we didnt do that back then and were not starting now, MDB is just extremely talented :)

  24. J.... L....

    there is no band like my dying bride they are one of a kind and no one sounds like them, i dont know why people try to categorize everything into groups, every group has there own sound especially my dying bride they are best band ever and no one compares to them :)

  25. J.... L....

    dude the bands nowadays suck really really bad ok there is no excuses for them, they are talentless jokes who have nothing special to offer and only degrade music with their noise that they make, i have been a MDB fan for over 20 years and no one compares to MDB and no one ever will, they are one of a kind with an ancient powerfully beautiful sound that helps one heal in many ways by listening to it :)

  26. J.... L....

    i agree with you about religion and satanism and all of the other religions that brain wash and are real cults in of themselves but i dont agree that you say we as white european men and women dont need it, well no one needs it ok not just white european people, all people need to be free from the lies and brainwash of all of these cults whether your white or not dont mean a thing to me sounds a little racist comment to me and im not with that at all as all people are the same no matter what:)

  27. e.... ....

    Krásná depkací melodie!

  28. g.... ....

    Probably their best album

  29. c.... K....

    I agree i think that early anathema paradise lost and these guys are what got me into this type of music. They were all on a peaceville compilation tape that i brought called vol4.. That was around 92. It got me into more extreme metal as i was into ozzy, metallica, iron maiden and all the usual late 80's and early90's shite. Thanks for upload

  30. p.... ....

    It's unfathomable that this classic is now 20 years old. Amazing song, genuine emotional depth which is so rare in the BLAAARRRRRRRGGGGG SAAAAATTTAAAAANNNN world of death metal (or whatever the kids are calling this stuff these days)

  31. j.... p....

    great...
