Picture of Dorian Gray |
| Staring at the one occupying the picture |
| Both envy and hate got a grip on me |
| Time wouldn’t fade the lines of his face |
| Admired and lusted after by some noble guests |
| As you would be kept clear of by those who would’ve brought you up to deity |
| I wish time would avoid me like the plague |
| And devour the gentle outlines on his face |
| To do so I would sell my soul to the devil |
| No need to grieve, night is drawing near |
| Will take away my daydream and sink into the ocean of stranger thoughts |
| Your prayer sounds enchantress to me like a spell |
| Get drunk on my words by yearning for this new life offering itself |
| I’ve been listened to by the Evil One |
| Who has made my prayer come true |
| I’ve lost all kind of sleep… |
| The ones that once loved me died in the net of my pride and imposture… |
| Now I feel ashamed |
| Cannot hide away from the curse that prevails in me |
| Each night I crowd round your soul and your |
| Nastiest thoughts taste like exquisite food |
| I happened to believe from pain burden I could be freed |
| Once upon a human, dust do dust, ashes to ashes |
| And once upon a vampire, vestige for centuries… |
| All the more beautiful the suffer is |
| Unwelcome gift… immortality! |
| Admired and lusted after as you would be kept clear of by those who would’ve |
| brought you up to deity… |
| This obscene face gazing at me |
| To disclose the cruel truth of my being |
| I wish you dead, I’m losing grip all the same |
| Mankind… can’t you see this is killing me? |
