I've been baptized in the blood
Of fallen lovers
Drinking all the tears
Cold with no covers
I felt the pain within me
And I saw that it was good
For after knowing agony
I'd give love whenever I could

Your face out of the abyss
I never meant to see
You were pure, angelic, divine
Your eyes have beaten me
I knew that for your touch
I'd live, or die, or kill
I knew that for your love
I'd abandon all other thrill

When time was right you went away
And I was left to feel
If only you could love and stay
Now all I had was steal
They found me with eyes still teary
Decaying on stones and mud
I know I should've remembered
How I've been baptized in blood.
