lyrics

Up the dirty stairs again / dandy dreams, cocaine screams
Paint the walls in junkie blood / and drape the whores in opium green
Sharks they circled and fog closed in / spectrum of sequins in turpentine
Moral turpitude at the gate / as violent love spilled in the wine

Carnal herald in sober times / (carpe noctum, ye crucified)
Death before boredom, we hold the line / (carpe noctum, ye crucified)

Conceal the one you truly are / a man to be rejected
Bury your bones, swallow your heart / a mask to be accepted
With love comes only strangulation / invasive cancer, labyrinthine
[decadent, delectable, deductible] / drown down in dihydrocodeine

Sebastian, you bastard / mother sends her sympathies
Regrets, egress, fetal alcohol apologies
Night come to take her away away, son / night come to take her away
Night come to take her away away, lad! / night come to take her away

“half-Byronic, part-moronic; part-shaman, part-showman; part-Nazi,
and part-Liberace”

Carnal herald in sober times / (carpe noctum, ye crucified)
Death before boredom, you crossed that line / (carpe noctum, ye crucified)
Carpe noctum, ye crucified, ah! / (carpe noctum, ye crucified)
Carpe noctum, ye crucified, ah! /(carpe noctum, ye crucified)

Night come to take her away away, son / night come to take her away
Night come to take her away away, boy! / night come to take her away

hahahaha...
Sebatian......
