lyrics

I’ll Die Tonight Of Beauty

Tonight my brow is burning, my eyelids they perspire
My dreams illuminate my thoughts, My dreams illuminate my thoughts
I’ll die tonight of beauty, I’ll die… tonight… of beauty
The soul’s impassioned in the depths like the glow at the end of night,
My dreams illuminate my thoughts, My dreams illuminate my thoughts
I’ll die tonight of beauty
We weep, we weep in stillness, we die in solitude
We weep, we weep in stillness, we die in solitude
Tonight my forehead’s gleaming and sweat drips from my eyes
My thoughts are blazing through my dreams, your face is blazing in my dreams
I’ll die tonight of beauty
Tonight of beauty I shall die, tonight of beauty I shall die
Tonight of beauty I shall die, tonight… I shall
The soul’s core is pure passion deep in the pit of night
A blazing cone, a blazing cone
Oh hush and weep in silence, let us weep oh let us die
Tonight we die alone, Tonight we die alone,
Tonight we die alone, Tonight we die alone
