Sisters of the Red Death

Vendetta Red Sisters of the Red Death Lyrics
1.Vendetta Red Cried Rape On Their Date With Destiny

When you're broken from the break up,
and those cold tears smear your makeup,
and you're wishing he made sure you were dead when he left
16 sutures on your throat dear
from your left ear to your right ear.
Goes to show you you're no good at breaking it off.

'Oh Holy Grace,
they made love to your face with a boxcutter.
Now you'll croon through the cavities girl.
The ropes burn your wrists,
tape stinging your lips till you're crying out
when those phantoms they claw at your door.'

Tied with barbed wire and guitar string
to a junkie's soiled box spring.
You were thankful
for the gym socks he stuffed in your mouth.
'Cause the blood soaked through the tissue
when your teeth broke when he hit you.
You denied him the pleasure he gets when you scream.

Say the words, tear the gauze,
and these bastards pay with their lives.


2.The Body and the Blood

Sister insomnia
my eyes weep worms for you.
Angel anathema,
I'll drink your blood.

The blood you shed for me
was all you gave to me.
My bold bulimic belly dancer,
narcissistic necromancer.
Run, just run from me.

As day consumes the night
the earth shall cover me.
Medussa Madonna,
murder me, marry me.

Under your vapid vulture wings,
I'll suckle your black milk
and let it trickle down my tongue.
Your womb mouth kiss could kill.

The blood you shed for me
was all you gave to me.
My cold canary causing cancer,
narcissistic necromancer.
Run, just run from me.

This time all riots, Im ready.
This time all riots, I'm ready to go.


3.A Joyless Euphoria

A scream engaged to peel your eyelids back.
Her skin like silk, my lips like knives.
A marriage of art and atrocity.
A sultry silhouette ensemble.

Rib into lung. Head on collision.
Tooth into tongue. Insipid succubi.
Match to the fuse.
And I'm un-anesthetically revived,
so ashamed that I survived.
A faceless fuck betrothed to his bedside,
A bed pan for a bride.

'And now that this curse is in my blood,
a time of redemption has begun.
A song for the ages, silent and sweet.'
The voice of forever singing through me.

Our varicose unholy abortionist
inquisitors' black crusade.
To cleanse your womb unfit for demon seed.
An anti-nest for the anti-christ.

'Can you hear me?
There's something I've been wanting to tell you.
When you were laying face down
in a pool of blood and broken glass,
you never looked so beautiful.
So who's the big man now, motherfucker?
The one missing his arms and legs?
Well I wanna lick those bloody stumps,
and cum candy in your mouth until you cry.'


4.Depressionesque

Imprisoned in perfume
I smell her in my blanket when I'm sleeping
Strange how they hurt you
Stinging memories they break your heart
And it's gone so fast
The only girl I ever loved is slipping through my hands
I blew a kiss, waved goodbye
Turned my head and hid my eyes so you wouldn't see me cry

Count me out cause I'm a mess
A twisted accident a psychological wreck
A bruising sentiment

We'll count back and curtsey
The curtain falls and I begin to burn
We stand out like statues
Impervious to pardoning our French


5.The Great Castration

He drew a question from a curtain of flies,
'Are there colors in the dreams of the blind?'
He knew the answer when you tore out his eyes,
'Does black count?'
Flaccid the severed member you clench.
Exalted walking carrion stench.
Your scorned lover was a street working wench.
And she w****d you.

Rejoice and join the great castration.
Sharpen your knives.

They swarm down a manicured talon flood.
Like frenzied harpies in a rapture of blood.
How comical we used to call you a stud.
Now you're stumpy.
Fervent disciple my unholy desire.
Shriek harmonies in our immaculate choir.
And set these androgynous corpes afire.
Those sexless seraphim are memories.

She won't pick your bones after all.
Your skull took it's place upon the wall.
Where her spirit scarred you,
Those maggots are married to you.

RAPE
They found her swinging from a pipe
In the basement of the church of Jesus Christ.
We sang RAPE.
We know whose hands are stained red.


6.Coital Improv

Hey miscarriage i was hoping you'd catch my white knuckled wave
But the umbilical bars of your seraphant cell they're all,
'hey now what's that sound?' Machine gun fire in the shantytown.
'the american mask of a terrorist clown?'
The stealth jet bombers and mushroom clouds coming down.
Congregation; behold our daughter the perversion of the age.
With these forceps i waved hello, and tried to pluck you from
the womb.
Hang your head in shame; ye who'd dare accuse our mother.
A curse upon your name and all your future sons.
The hour is at hand and she will be the herald for the reign of
womankind
Let the blood rain down forever and ever.


7.Silhouette Serenade

The last thing I wanna do right now is read your stupid poetry

Why can't you just tell me what you really wanna say?

You'd clear your conscience with words so weak and empty

But something in your eyes gave you away

And i've been lonely like a silhouette or a serenade

A heart attack or a man betrayed

The arms of love been holding me like a silhouette or a serenade

Is this all you have to say this broken boy would hang on every
word

You tell me that you need me while I slowly fall apart

You'd heal your heartache with words so cool and callous

But the absence of your tears gave you away

And I've been lonely like a silhouette or a serenade

A heart attack or a man betrayed

The arms of love been holding me like a silhouette or a serenade

And all pretty poems have to end

So I say this before I leave

If words are your weapons my dear I surrender, surrender

Silhouette or a serenade

A heart attack or a man betrayed

The arms of love been holding me to you


8.The Banshee Ballet

Shame rests in hollow circles under all of our eyes.
You stole the living air from me
and payback is a bitter banshee.

At the site of my grave
performed their bitter biopsy
diva and deviant dichotomy.

Sleep came in a vision of beauty,
she hovered over my bed,
she had her holy way with me,
and made me cum like the clergy.
She led me through a cluttered gallery,
took me by the hand and she said,
'Come here boy, stick your head between my legs
and start praying.'

At the site of my grave
she had her holy way with me
for my benevolent biography.

The earth stood still, and the air fell ill,
and the sky bled acid rain for days.
Suckled, sincere, and crystal clear
like the sound of falling dirt upon
the lid of my coffin.

At the site of my grave,
she had her holy way with me,
and hung a halo on a hard harpy.


9.In Lieu of Dead Brides

Fucked on the gurney 'til you're black and blue,
by beheaded banshees who cackle and coo.
Who'd let a medic of blasphemous birth
flavor his meat with the salt of the earth?
Cannons and hymnals condemn you to die,
and oh how the acolytes sing?

'Lay them on the lawn like dead virgins.
Goddess of the grove we praise thee.
Gloria.
For every one of our sisters tortured
a thousand of their sons will burn.'

Fist through your gums like a five fingered kiss.
A sad toothless suitor in post coital bliss.
Roll up that dollar, and powder your nose,
you'll show up like semen on dark colored clothes.
Forceps and scalpel make a mockery of flesh,
and oh how the acolytes sing?

They're pointing, laughing, while he begs
his tormentors for just one taste
of that wicked honey between her legs,
before it goes away,
and she goes away.


10.Run

Shoot to kill,
She wrapped her legs around my face stripped down she she went
down and that's all.
And where is art?
It's in the tears of the retarded children,
when you tell them there's no God.
You'll fall asleep forever,
But never close your eyes,
'cause every day you're wishing you could hold her through the
night. She'd have you sing the chorus then watch the years go by
but I don't mind.
The meat talks back,
Divorce my head off of my neck to dine on hot organs,
And that's all.
And where is love?
It's on the blade of this old kinfe,
Your lover took your life and took off.


11.Gloria

Took half your face and both your eyes
It left you nothing but paralyzed
And mushroom clouds it left behind
Our city's crumbling but i don't mind
The ether tastes like nausea,
A permanent distraction
From the waking world outside

Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria

Like scared teens on ecstasy
An epileptic dance party
So shut your mouth
And don't you scream
Just hold my hand girl and dance with me
To the sound of severed hands clapping
And our untimely funeral
Bombs wrap children round sweet scents

Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria

In the soundful rain
In the flames in the fallout
I hear the echoes of an empire calling out your name
What goes to show me what your to serenade
And through the smoke i heare them singing
I hear them singing gloria

Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria
Rain down, gloria


12.A Dark Heart Silhouette

I've got a secret. A terrible secret.
And if I told you would you promise to keep it secret?
I just put my head down every time they call my name
'Cause they never understand me anyway.

Every time you call my name.
In the shape of a palm on the side of her face.
Every time you call my name.

He was our teacher. Our Sunday school preacher.
And he made her stay after school one day while I waited.
And I watched him take her,
Beat her and rape her, then he said,
'If you tell anyone, I'll have God kill your mommy.'

So I just put my head down
Every time they called my name,
'Cause they never understand me anyway.

Every time you call my name.
In the shape of a palm on the side of her face.
Every time you call my name.

I've got a secret. A terrible secret.
But you never understand it anyway.
Every time you call my name.
In the shape of a palm on the side of her face.
Every time you call my name.

Anyway every time you call my name.
In the shape of a palm on the side of her face.
Every time you call my name.


13.Shiver

Fear in a frame? Or the picture of a girl?
With a gorgonesque stare,
her scale covered hair's got a snake in every curl.
With her forked tongue and her ash colored eyes,
get you down on the floor, naked and sore.
First you shiver, then you die.

Cut your fingers on the page
where those old wounds run deep.
But the taste of the sand,
rosary in her hand.
They still haunt you in your sleep.

Shiver yeah, you'll shiver through the night.
I'm delivered vapid vulture to the light.

Gonna shiver, and shiver, and shiver, and shiver,
you'll shiver through the night.

Deceived by the sound.
The pitter patter of little feet
was the rhythm-less rave of your cloven hoofed babe
calling to you from the street.
And she taunts you as she danced
your genitals in the dirt.
Your paternal heart aches as your bones bend and break
but the beating barely hurts.

So desperate to love but you just can't pretend
that her hands weren't claws.
Your Madonna was Medusa in the end.

It's too late to keep your tongue from sliding
'round the scales of the snake.
Ride the snake.
