Lichmistress Lyrics
Our lady of seven sorrows,
Mother of mourning, precious lich...
A white horse found your grave,
Then it was beheaded.
The funeral goat's semen
Annoints your resting place.
Far below, the state you're in replenishes
My well of loss
As things from beyond watch as you rot
Beneath me.
Wretchedly, I pine as I begin at once to claw
The earth
To free you from the worms, to free you
From damnation.
The stake in your bosom pains me too...
Wistfully, I gaze into those empty holes
Which once were eyes
That beheld so much blood, that beheld so
Much evil...
Cyanotic lips caress the cold grey face of
One interred
Whose flesh is much too frail, whose flesh
Begins to quiver.
Mistress of my flesh,
Your servant longs for your kiss,
To hold you once again,
All pretty with blood...
Now shall all of heaven weep.
Mother of mourning, precious lich...
Then it was beheaded.
The funeral goat's semen
Annoints your resting place.
My well of loss
As things from beyond watch as you rot
Beneath me.
Wretchedly, I pine as I begin at once to claw
The earth
To free you from the worms, to free you
From damnation.
Which once were eyes
That beheld so much blood, that beheld so
Much evil...
Cyanotic lips caress the cold grey face of
One interred
Whose flesh is much too frail, whose flesh
Begins to quiver.
Your servant longs for your kiss,
To hold you once again,
All pretty with blood...

His lover's dead, but he can't accept it, so he's weeping at her grave and it develops far worse, with the animal sacrifices and digging her up to ressurect her. Although I admit that the stake in the bosom infers that it could also be a vampire.
Please do not post on a site that gives you the lyrics and then say you can't understand them so you can't discover a meaning, that's just pointless.
Thought to me, it symbolizes a man standing on the earth above a female vampires grave perhaps? (with the stake in the bosom bit) then he digs her up and resurrects her.
This song means absolutely nothing to me because I cannot understand a single thing they sing.
