Ivan and the Necrolytes Some Place Dark Lyrics

Criswell’s Corpses
See a deathly girl with a deadly dance
It’s criswell’s corpses
Ghoulish goddess, she’s the dancing dead
One of criswell’s corpses
Sinful zombie love all through the night
Criswell’s corpses
Debauchery in the full moon light
With criswell’s corpses
Chorus:
Serpents poison pleasure bite
I doubt if I’ll survive the night
In this orgy of the dead
Dead bump and grind to a eulogy
Of criswell’s corpses
Spookshow of undead ecstasy
Criswell’s corpses
Half-naked souls in sexy hell
Criswell’s corpses
Half-naked souls to please criswell
They’re criswell’s corpses
Watch this infernal paradise
Of criswell’s corpses
Criswell’s erotic appetite
For criswell’s corpses
Risen dead, they lust eternally
Criswell’s corpses
Necrophiliac love fantasy
Go! Criswell’s corpses
Brutally Morbid Pregnant Nun Massacre
Dark are the stains upon this sister’s clothes
Much blacker are the stains upon her soul
Like a bruised and broken seraphim
You defy your vows and let me in
Let father take you down, down, down.
Like the light of jesus take me deep inside
I’ll purge your sin as I lay you open wide
And though you gaze at me with angel eyes
You can’t deny your carnal side
Now the beast within ain’t just inside of me
Death becomes this prioress
As she seeks salvation from herself
Ever seen the pure so scared?
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Holy water thick with blood
Her innards fill baptismal font
What’s black and white and crimson red?
It’s a brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Impalement done by crucifix
To plunge out her tainted uterus
Use her habit to clean my claws
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Pools of blood at jesus’ feet
With broken bones and holy meat
Gorge upon the stillborn child
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Virgin of the purest form
Imbibe of blood the corpse still warm
Communion of real flesh and blood
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Bible pages stained from this
The blood of nuns within my fist
Seduction turns to mortal fear
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Sacrimental matricide
With a sacrificial virgin bride
Upon the altar of our sins
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Intoxicated by lust and greed
Heavy with my holy seed
But child birthing you’ll never know
Brutally morbid pregnant nun massacre
Hunters Moon
Cold wind, colder inside
Nothing’s cold as my nocturne bride
White face, she shows me thing’s
That living eyes just cannot see
Blood thirst waxing at night
Twisted shadows in the pale light
Night lady makes me things
That purer forms just cannot be
Chorus:
In the hunters moon
In the hunters moon
Now peel away the skin that’s hidden long this evil thing
In the hunters moon
White fangs, luminous eyes
Never cured from that lupine bite
Foul, twisted, hungry thing
Thetas cursed to darkness endlessly
Choked howls, broken by cries
Of another that she chose to die
Dark widow brings upon
This blessed curse lycanthropy
Chorus
Cold wind, empty inside
Nor the touch of my midnight bride
Small solace from the blessings
Of this curse lycanthropy
Chorus:
Crimson Veil
Like a crimson veil
As your skin turns pale
Asphyxiation of the body
Out your guts I wrench
With the life-warm stench
A demon-wolf blood caked and hungry
Feel your sinews split
And the blood run hot
Out of the pits in your ripped and mangled flesh
Lupine teeth tear I
Ferrous-bitter taste
Behold the face of evil
I want your blood
Sanguine thirst arise
In these onyx eyes
Do you see what’s now to follow?
This, your tortured end
As a broken form
Of torn flesh, blood, guts, and marrow
But your pain through death
And the cries you gave
Are nothing near what I’ve yet to make you feel
Screams of pleading pain
Cut off by the claws
Of death-hungry-evil
I want your blood
Bloody crimson veil
Vestment made of pain
Execution…so divine
Ecstasy I felt
As I made you die
In go my teeth, out comes the spine
Gore the fearful face
As it peels away
Exposing things that the body just can’t hide
Vivisectionist
With omega’s fist
Wrath…sullen…evil
I want your blood
I’m gonna rip your throat
Snap the neck, expose the spine
Bite a chunk out of your tear-soaked face
As your eyes fix onto mine
Can you see me looking back?
Maybe now you’ll understand…
That I ain’t all beast,
But not quite man…
Cadaverine
Much worse than the day that I found you
Decomposing covered with flies
Black sores all over your body
Flesh rot and sunken eyes
There’s more in the place that I’ll take you
Like a brothel of necrophyles
Sharp reek, rising from phantoms
Encased in foul disguise
Black death on everyone’s doorstep
Black death in everyone dreams
Must burn what remains of the fallen
Ignore their tortured screams
What’s left in misery’s wake now?
What’s left for misery’s grasp?
How many more will be taken?
Will this plague ever pass?
Much worse than the day that it started
Huge pyres for all the slain
Just victims of this infernal
Maelstrom of dark decay
What’s left in misery’s wake now?
What’s left for misery’s grasp?
How many more will be taken?
Will this plague ever pass?
Black Hallowmass
World’s end in the Autumn fire
Walk with me and I’ll show you why
You don’t have to fear who comes with the face of death
Summoned here by the first November breath
Pre-Chorus:
I can feel your fingers tighten
As I hum you a gentle eulogy
Are you scared that you won’t survive this?
Why the hell did you ever walk with me?
Chorus:
I wanna taste every tear you cry
I wanna taste everything you hide
Will you share yourself with death
As we share your final breath?
Pre-chorus
Chorus
White veil of the graveyard rime
Closer dear, cause it’s almost time
When you’ll see beyond the turned leaves and pumpkin grins
As we gather here to embrace our ancient sins
Chorus
Warm yourself by the haunted fire
Hallowmass of your dark desires
For the one who walks on this day with the face of death
Summoned here by your cold and shallow breath
Ending Pre-Chorus:
I can feel your fingers tighten
As I lay you into a shallow grave
Are you scared that you won’t survive this?
Hallowed fears on this dark November day
CHORUS
Death Prenatal
Gut the problem from the womb
Assembly line and hecatomb
Is killing unborn babies cruel?
Their corpses keep my belly full
Moral questions make you scared
Like will they baptize pre-born dead?
Agony of life’s defeat
I feast upon their tepid meat
Chorus:
I dig my claws into your womb
Gonna kill the fetus
I’ll make you everlasting grim
Kill the fetus
Kill the fetus
I turn you to maternal tomb
Kill the fetus
Will jesus love your dead baby?
If you don’t love it, why should he?
Remember, now, he was like you…
Cause Jesus Christ killed children, too
Abortion clinic? Butcher shop!
Where you are freed as life is stopped
Convincing them abortion’s best
Addicted to this stillborn flesh
Abattoir of fetal corpse
I kill them all without remorse
Their body parts adorn my smile
With bits of bone and liver bile
In this prenatal slaughter house
You open up, I tear it out
Uterine evisceration
Violent fetal trucidation
Chorus
I’m a human pesticide
My fee is just your unborn child
Carcasses of tender flesh
Feed my hunger, feed my hate
Rancid product of your loins
Maternal warmth oblivion
Uterine evisceration
Violent fetal trucidation
Ending Chorus
I dig my claws into your womb
Gonna kill the fetus
I’ll make you everlasting grim
Kill the fetus
Kill the fetus
I turn you to maternal tomb
Kill the fetus
I sink my fangs into your womb
Kill the fetus
Barren now, made lifeless by my hand
Kill your fetus
I Drink Blood
With a flash of midnight moonlight
On my freshly sharpened fangs
And your tempting pulse that summons me
From this cursed coffin
I drink blood
Mortal realization
Racks your features, soft and cold
Like a china doll in the hands
Of some carrion creature
I drink blood
In the mausoleum doorway
I’m a howling silhouette
I crack the rigor from your limbs
And toast the sunrise
I drink blood
Gorgegeous
Countless time I’ve held your face upon my blackened heart
Countless times I’ve loved your eyes, they’ve killed me just the same
Thought of how you’d melt my void with every loving breath
Thought of how I’d worship you, and now I think of death
Dreamt of how your body feels beneath my icy claws
Dreamt how of passion/pain and now I dream of blood
Watch you now as razors dance across my weary wrists
Watch you now, you just ignore, and make me hate myself
Cradled you in loving torment time and time again
Proved love to you through suicide, proved love by my own death
See now girl, the tables have turned
Where once I cried, now you burn
I’d take my life to give you love
Now I’m taking your life and I get what I want
Flesh Hungry
Well I’m a flesh hungry cannibal
And I’m a blood thirsty walking nightmare
I sink my teeth into your murdered corpse
And then I lick your blood off from my hands
Chorus:
Cause I’m a flesh hungry cannibal
I’m gonna devour my baby’s face
She was so sweet, so sweet to me
But nowhere near as sweet to taste
We’ll I bring impending homicide
Cause I’m a grim-faced blood-wreaking scumbag
But all the rancid foulness on my face
Is nothing to the filth inside
Chorus
We’ll I’m a flesh craving maniac
I’ve always loved you with these intentions:
The more of you that I can swallow, dear
Is less of you I’ll have to hide
Chorus
Ghost On The Gallows
I drink deep from your dying eyes
Like I’ve done before countless scores of times
Why do they haunt me like you do?
I’m numb to pain when life is lost
I’ve been hardened by your ghostly frost
Have I made a martyr out of you?
How sharp is this, your pentenance?
Was it worth all the bloody decadence?
Did you think you’d meet cold, hard noose?
Black leather hides my wicked smile
Of a wicked soul, and deeds so vile
So black no gallows could excuse
Pre-Chorus:
I hoist you high above the angry screams and faceless eyes
This mask I wear becomes my pall
Who here among you don’t deserve to hang and die as well?
Who here but me dares to absolve?
Chorus:
Ghost on the gallows
Begging, pleading, looking down
Ghost on the gallows
Bloody clothes are funeral shroud
Ghost on the gallows
Serpent coiled thirteen-fold
Ghost on the gallows
Tortured spirit, sinful soul
Your dying words are mute to me
‘cause I lavish in your misery
Far more than those who cast you here
Though I love to hear the spinal snap
As the noose pulls taught-constricted-wrapped
Each one I hang looks just like me
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Revealing all your bloody sins
As I hold you high, your death begins
I watch your corpse now slowly sway
I brandish death like its meant to be
All the damned dead I’ve yet to see
I’ve never wept on hanging day
I drank deep from your cold, dead eyes
Like I’ll do again countless scores of times
Then I’ll haunt the gallows just like you
I’m numb as you, my mirrored face
As I wipe all life out of this place
That t might be a martyr, too
Ending Pre-Chorus:
They pull you down and place you in the freshly shoveled loam
Just like a dead and frozen seed
My noose is still warm from your premature and early end
What does it mean when gallows bleed?
Chorus 2x
Midnight Rain
Mesmerize me with the dead
I feel numb and sharpened
Cut you though you cannot bleed
You leave me cold and blackened
The two of us become as one
I push away remorse
Perhaps you’ve become alive, darling
Perhaps I’m the corpse
So desperation leads to this
It’s almost too convenient
It seems the chains around my wrists
Are now loose and lenient
You’re as cold as midnight rain
I feel the cold explore me
Morbid pleasure, welcome pain
I find the cold astounding
Chorus:
Black streaks of candle smoke
Incense and dirges
Oblong box with velvet pall
Carnal blood meets life embalmed
Won’t get caught so it can’t be wrong
Breathless form of flesh and bone
Frozen girl, my lifeless slave
Fornication in the grave
Peel away the cerements
With icy touch, it numbs the pain
Together our six foot descent
Wash me in your midnight rain
Chorus
Insatiating pain…
Twilight Time
Can I meet you in the twilight time?
My pale girl, my little one
Can I hold you close in someplace dark?
Outside the day, far from the sun
Will we make it through the twilight time?
Beings or dark, or darkness’ prey
Will you bless me dear with one last touch?
In the waning light, the dying day
Chorus:
I can taste the nightshade on your lips
And feel the evil in your kiss
I smell my blood upon your breath
My falling tears freeze on your breasts
Can you take me to the blackest pits of hell?
Can you show me sins no mortals ever felt?
Can we love in ways infernal and unclean?
Black enough to make all angels from nine spires weep
As I shiver here with one last evensong
Your skin looks so untainted from the light of day
Will you hold me on the threshold of desire?
Or are your thoughts for me as cold and ashen grey?
Chorus
When the bell tolls midnight will you fade from me?
To end this life? Or in this hollow form endure?
Shall I wander through this vast and empty night?
Or bask in solitude upon Stygians shore?
