Rose of Pain Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Why are you scared?
What have you seen?
In the castle with the silent roses
I ask again and again
Why are you sad?
What pain are you feeling?
Oh, I ask of the rose with its petals of blood
But the rose of blood can't answer me till the end

Scream without raising your voice
Iki wo koroshite mitsumeru

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Kuroi hitomi no oku shinpi ni michita hohoemi wo ukaberu
Himei to tomo ni nagareru kurushimi wo mitsumete
Shiroi suhada ni shinju no kubikazari wo yosoui
Kyouki no chi to tawamure, odori hajimeru
Ai wo nakushita kokoro, satsuriku no yorokobi ni moeru
She will kill to make herself more beautiful
Gisei wo houseki ni kaete mo

[Instrumental Break]

Higeki no subete wo, iki wo koroshite mitsumeru

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Slice them! Slice them till they're running in blood
Nigemawaru onna wo
Tear up! Tear up till their red blood runs dry
Hadaka no karada wo tsurushiagete

Nikushimi ni koroshi au, toki no nagare no naka de
Chi de arau, karada no kagayaki motomete
Yokubou ni dakareta kokoro iki ba wo miushinai
Ai no subete wo hikisaku, namida sae misezu ni

[Chorus 1]
Rose of pain! Subete wo
Mitsume obieru
Rose of pain!

[Spoken Interlude]
The castle became a violent sea of blood
The blood covers the flower, dying it deep red
Stop! Stop dying me red
I can't take anymore
You are too cruel!
Stop! Please stop!

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Slice them! Slice them till they're running in blood
Nigemawaru onna wo
Close up! Close up their mouth using thread and needle
Hadaka no karada wo tsurushiagete

Motome ai kizutsuku ai wo azakeri warai
Kawaita karada no uruoi motomete
Kill them all chimamire no kokoro subete wo miushinai
Ikiru zangyaku no naka de, namida sae misezu ni

[Chorus 2]
Rose of pain! Subete wo
Mitsume obieru
Rose of pain! I don't want to see
Rose of pain! Kurushii
Rose of pain!

[Spoken]
In eternal madness we live
Even if it was just a dream
Now pain, nothing but pain!

[Outro]
Rose of Pain!

This seems to be about Elizabeth Bathory, the female pendant to Dracula, if you will. In case you're not familiar with the story, you might just look it up. Basically it's about a countess murdering virgins and bathing in their blood. She believes that this is keeping her from the pains of aging. The story is pretty much all around in metal and inspired bands such as Kamelot, Cradle of Filth or, obviously, Bathory. As for X, I think it really fits to their style - it's about beauty, pain, death, blood, basically everything that defines their music in general. And the song itself is one epic metal symphony.

I think these are the best lyrics I have ever read/heard. It's sadistic, poetic. I LOVE IT TO DEATH.

lol Wapanese Weeaboos >_>

XD I kid, I kid.

Very awesome song though. The intro kicks ass. (Organ FTW) The lyrics are very Gothicy and brings to mine the term "Black Rose", hence the title of the song. Tragic past, pain, sadism. It's all here. Oh, and vampires too.
