Dead Can Dance – The Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove Lyrics 7 years ago
Nine years since last comment; no one may ever see this one...

I think this is darker than a breakup. It is about a loveless ("feigned affections"), abusive ("slave drum") relationship that was based on lies and/or sex ("in darkness my heart was won")...

But
"Dream on my dear
And renounce temporal obligations.
Dream on my dear
It's a sleep from which you may not awaken."
sounds more like attempted murder.
