Wear The Black Dress

Meet me in that hallway
Little Bastard's coming home
Dead roses on the doorstep
Distant voices on the phone
Waiting for the mourners, alone in the front row
Stark white call to join you, dressed up in shades of crow
Midnight on Route 466
Rushing for that Last Kiss
Red light gonna set me free
When I arrive I'll be so cold
Promise me before we fold
You'llwear the black dress for me
Take me back into your darkened crypt
A purr to the taste of ash and skin
Bleed for the cut of curves I crave
Eternal, wrapped in your funeral din

Drink The Wine

Drain the taste so slowly
Enfolded by a waning pulse
Carved in deathless memory
Cold flesh spun endless beautiful
Sip the years in longing
Warmth evoking distant taste
Endless drain to sanguine fate
Endless life in sips of mine
Pass the years through lips that drain
Open these veins and drink the wine
Caught in celluloid glory
Forever by the night estranged
Orbit decays slowly
Desire's teeth close this range
Vicious skin wraps hungry
In screams of loss and mourning stains
Burn, Burn little flame
Our pulse swings close in time
Dim hours shield our kind
Where shadows bay and sigh

Behold the final night
Sins await our curtain call
Hand of end has swept this land
All gather as last night falls
Let mourning set the stage
Colder days now given birth
Shutter age of man away
And let our shadows rule the earth
Sing notes of dim refrain
Guttered lights in feral eyes
Dumb beasts now roam untamed
Seal of longing & fading sighs

Death Church New Orleans, Louisiana
Death Church came about from a stew of influences: Samhain,TSOL, Christian Death, GISM, Joy Division to name a few. Throughout each incarnation, the songs remain about the daily strife of human existence, the horrors of isolation and despair, the feeling that everything sits on a thin glass sheet over primoridal chaos. Always too punk for the goths, too goth for the punks. We are the sleepless. ... more
