Cold night, December 29th The woods whisper between the mist In this cold night, this starless night Frozen winds carry a gloomy wail Crimson tears have been shed A crime of love, a shameful murder In this silent night, a victim will lay forever Reeds ask the whispering trees "Why this threnody? Whence comes the piercing cry?" Then the forest screams "Fear the answer For eternal mourning we will keep" "I did it for us I did it for her It's not a crime It's a marriage for life I did it for us I did it for her Now both we'll lay Together we will rest I stabbed her eyes to end her cry I tore her heart to end her pain Why did you lie to me When you said you won't be mine? Our feathers, black as a moonless night My peak red as yours covered in your blood Your empty heart abandoning life As mine was dead since we met Words spoken with bloody tongue A cry for love drenched with hate A soul destroyed by lifeless housing And now two hearts bleed together Since that outrageous night Of the cold December 29th By the shores of the scarlet lake From the red waters we hear a cry: "You stabbed my eyes You tore my heart The vacuum where I now rest Is where you lived as if you were dead You say you did it for me A crime of love To embrace your own death You say you did it for us You say you did it for me For now I shall rest Where you lived as if you were dead"
