Thy Womb Full of Black Nectar
Darkest mound in the forest was found
Darkest mound in the forest was found
So moist, so round
Black Nectar dripped down...
Droplets trickled across the ground
Droplets trickled across the ground
Seeping, Oozing,
As if from a bleeding womb

Masque L’ Intrigue
The masks we wear
So as not to bare
The darkened and scarred underbelly
Reminders to stay aware.
Eyes opening, peering through tiny slits
Gazing through time,
a pale face placidly emits
Smoky faded memories
Emerge from a vermilion mouth
Hissing as the echoes warn of a ghostly flow
revealing this friend or foe....
Friend or Foe....
The masks we wear, so as not to bare
The darkened and scarred underbelly
Reminders to stay aware,
Stay aware. Stay aware.

Tears of the Moon
My tears....
I drink the tears of the moon
Fall on my head, wash over my body
In waves, drip down my face
Into my mouth, my mouth glows
Opening with the light of the moon
Moonlight spills out of my mouth
And as my lips part....
Tears so wet and hot
Droplets onto my skin
My head, my face, down over my body
Waves of emotion -- pain, agony, bliss, ecstacy,
wash over me.
My tears…
I drink the tears of the moon
Fall on my head, wash over my body
In waves, drip down my face
Into my mouth
My mouth glows
Tears of the Moon
Oooh, Oooh,
Tears of the Moon.

Cold Dead Skin
Minds float up on wings of glass
A delicate climb, not meant to last
Minds float up on wings of glass
Till they shatter...
Does it even matter?
Resting weary heads on petals
Made of Cold Dead Skin
Resting weary heads on petals
Made of Cold Dead Skin
Minds float up on wings of glass
Time seems so fragile
Stretched, worn, and torn,
Flesh stretched taut, worn too thin
Minds float up on wings of glass,
A delicate climb, not meant to last
Resting weary heads on petals
Made of Cold Dead Skin
Resting weary heads on petals
Made of Cold Dead Skin

Shadows of Whispering Phantoms
Can you hear me? Can you see me?
Can you feel me? Can you see me?
Can you hear me, can you see me?
Can you feel me, Can you see me?
Feel me deep inside your heart
I see every breath you take
As your lips part
Drawing your last breath
Exhaling vapors and mist
Arms reaching up above
Reaching out far away
Reaching out far away
Can you hear me? Can you see me?
Can you feel me? Can you see me?
I can’t see you… I can’t see you anymore
Why aren’t you reaching for me anymore?
Why aren’t you reaching for me?
EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE
I can’t see you anymore
I can’t feel you anymore
I can barely hear you

Of Ruination

Dreams weaved into nightmare
Nightmare becomes reality
Eyes dilate wide as poison abounds inside
Agents of ruination
In a dance of proliferation
Dizzy and faint
Bringing only devastation
Dreams weaved into nightmare
Nightmare becomes reality
Eyes dilate wide as poison abounds inside
Heya Niya Heya Niya

The Palace of Tears New Orleans, Louisiana
"With a haunting allure, The Palace of Tears artfully combines entrancing electronics, intricate guitar work, and deep, operatic vocals to produce a sound that seems to defy time itself. This duo’s signature blend draws from black metal, gothic rock, ambient drone, and more, all enveloped in a richly cinematic atmosphere." -- Alice Teeple ... more
