Decaying Beauty - Inkubus Sukkubus

Flesh of my flesh

Bone of my bone

A body is merely

A shell for the soul

Colours changing, body fading

Flesh, and blood, and bone decaying

Stumbling, falling, limbs now failing

Not much more from life remaining

Weaker now, I feel us slipping

Youth and beauty fade from view

Steady me, my fingers gripping

Hold me while I fall to you

Hold me closer

What is happening to us?

Hold me closer

Can’t lose you again

See your flesh, it’s growing thinner

See your bones, they’re shining through

See your teeth in lipless grin

And see the fear I feel for you

Hold me closer, how I love you dearly

Hold me closer, love will never die

Hold me closer, you must never fear me

Hold me closer, we’re one, you and I

Hold me closer, how I love you dearly

Hold me closer, love will never die

Hold me closer, you must never fear me

Hold me closer, we’re one, you and I

Flesh to flesh, I need you near me

Bodies fail, but love remains

Bone to bone, I see so clearly

With our love we’re still the same

Hold me closer

What is happening to us?

Hold me closer

Can’t lose you again
