Was all in vain, or did you cry? No need to ask; my tears have run dry This is the end of my pity I wait to die
You now the living, me now the dead You now the living, me now the dead
To prove that you loved me Mere words could not have said Biting into skin, into flesh, into me Taking all you could Oh, I'd still give you blood Just to paint your lips If you should wish them red My desires your kiss completed But only now I can see The vicious joy when you took delight Behind each kiss your poison bite And when my all was given And you had taken O doglike Judas, you did disappear
Was all in vain, or did you cry? No need to ask
You now the living, me now the dead You now the living, me now the dead
