Slave to the Casket

Lyrics

To have and to hold after death's done its part
 In a grave lying cold there remains my heart
 In sickness and stealth i come for conjugal exhumation
 Disinterring my betrothed for postmortem consummation
 To love and to cherish, though rotten and perished
 For richer or poorer
 Even though i abhor her...
 In a chapel we were wed
 We found marital bliss
 Now in this chapel of the dead
 Again we shall kiss...
 Drawn back to the mausoleum, to rekindle love's icy flame
 A dutiful bridegrume's devotion, to the corpse who bears my surname
 By night it's her embrace that i crave, our conjugal deathbed is her grave
 By undying love i am depraved, i am the casket's slave
 On one hand is my revulsion to these sordid tomb trysts
 On the other is a gold ring that sill binds me to this
 Necro-nuptial bliss is hard to find often
 Our second honeymoon was spent nude in this coffin
 My loving memory lives on in ways some would deplore,
 Since she has passed on, death is all i live for
 At times it's mortifying, being in love with a stiff
 The rigors of marriage were never quite like this...
 In a chapel we were wed
 Seeking marital bliss
 Now in this chapel of the dead
 I once more open your lips
 Drawn back to my consort, to feel the passion of love's icy flame
 An amorous necrophile's compulsion, to ravish the corpse who took my name
 By night it's her embrace that i crave, our conjugal deathbed is her grave
 By undying love i am depraved, i am the casket's slave
 Slave to the casket
 Slave to the casket
 Slave to the casket
 Slave to the casket
 Though her beauty has long since decayed
 My love carries on unafraid
 Emboldened by the stench of my wife, i give her the fuck of her afterlife
 My love is beautifully pure
 In putrefactive innards immured
 Once i was soft and unable to love her
 Now six feet down i molest my dead lover
 In a chapel we were wed
 I never found the true bliss
 Till in this chapel of the dead
 We shared a stolen kiss...
 Drawn back to the chranel house, to feel the cold breath of love's icy flame
 Now you take all of me deep inside you, the way once you took my name
 By night it's her embrace that i crave, our conjugal deathbed is her grave
 By undying love i am depraved, i am the casket's slave...
