Nocte Obducta

Lyrics Der durst in meinen augen Nocte Obducta

 852

Der durst in meinen augen


Oh, tiefe Nacht...wir, sechs dunkle Fürsten, die wir waren
Im Prunkgemach von schwerem Samt und blutig roten Farben
Das Licht der schweren Kandelaber brach sich zart in schwerem Wein
Benetzte unsre Augen, die so hungrig mit dem Purpurschein

?Oh, schönes Kind...höre nur, der Tod ruft deinen Namen?
Der Mond sah bleich auf sie hinab, sie stand am eigenen Grabe
?Die Finsternis, sie ruft nach dir, wirst du widerstehen??
Mein Ruf würgt dein Tageslicht, du wirst es nie mehr sehen

Lächelnd sprach die Nacht uns schuldig der Blasphemie
Des Verlangens
Verfluchend die Enthaltsamkeit
Und ich sah in den kristallenen Spiegeln
Den Durst in meinen Augen

Besinnliche Momente in der Ahnenbildgalerie
Die staub´gen Reihen finsterer Gemälde halb verfault und klamm
Dennoch saß das Leben tief in ihren zerfall´nen Blicken
?Du bist auch ein Wolf, der trotz der Liebe reißen muss das Lamm?
Die Abbilder der längst verstorb´nen zogen mich in ihren Bann
Der Wein in meinem Blute hauchte ihnen wieder Leben ein
Sie wussten, was ich war, ihr Fluch quoll durstig noch in meinen Adern
Durst trieb mich nun einmal mehr durchs Treppenhaus von Stein

Ich öffnete leise die kunstvollen Türen
Die Schatten empfingen mich als einen der ihren
Den Tod in den Augen durch eisigen Regen
Schritt ich ihr, deren besiegelt, entgegen

Mondlichtdurchsetzt war der Mitternachtsnebel und träumte von Tod und von
Leben
Liebkoste in nasskalter, böser Umarmung ein Standbild von Nehmen und Geben
Jung war das Fleisch, dem den Tod ich gegeben, ich hielt in den Armen den
sterbenden Schmerz
Noch immer vermochte ihr süßes Gesicht zu erwärmen mein stetig erkaltendes
Herz
Und als ich mich all dieser Nächte entsann, da durchfuhr mich ein eisiger
Schauer
Der Nachgeschmack fremden Blutes, er barg stets ein schweres Aroma von
Trauer
Doch aufrichtiger Dank und ein stummes Versprechen, ein dem Tod abgerungenes
?Ja?
Lag jetzt wie ein Siegel erstarrender Hoffnung in ihrem schon leblosen
Augenpaar

Es reflektierten die blicklosen Blicke
Den Durst in meinen Augen

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics DER DURST IN MEINEN AUGEN of NOCTE OBDUCTA is also present in the album Galgendammerung - von nebel, blut und totgeburten (2002)
