I don't know if I'm the only one, but I'm just not hearing some of the things here.
Commonly with bands, the lyrics will be written and printed but in the recording the singer will change a word here and there.
I think that's what happened here, because certain parts of this just don't sound like what's written down, at all.
They're small little corrections here and there, but in the actual recording I hear:
Now the funeral grounds are at last awash
With the blackness of this frigid autumn night
I lurked into the graveyard with pick and spade in tow
This night shall birth forth our reckoning
Hell's jaws, now open wide
A stare to pierce six feet of soil
A love beyond this mortal coil
As though you never left my side,
I hold your stiffened body so close to me
For years I've lived in a dream
Awake, I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride-to-be
I can barely suppress my elation!
My blood is racing as I strike the lid
A quick pry of the casket reveals her body, paralyzed
How long I've waited for this moment,
To thrust my fingers deep inside!
Now you will live the song of the deceased
The ones whose souls will never rest in peace!
The throes of necromantic lust infest my mind
Cries of my precious frozen angel beckon from inside
I feel alive! For once I'm feeling so alive
My skin is crawling,
I'm completed on this resurrection night
This night reveals a morbid truth
Love's bounds post-mortally removed
As though you never left my side,
I hold your stiffened body so close to me
For years I've lived in a dream
Awake, I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride-to-be
In rapture my mind is lured by my own knife
To join this fragile being who sleeps below
The reflection of a razor reveals the moon so perfectly
Along my impatient veins its steel does graze
With the kiss of suicide!
I feel no pain as I lay with my lover and bride
The silk lining now stained with my offering
I embrace the end of my now worthless life
