Translation
Bilingual
The day was nearly over
They were hosing down the house
When they caught sight of her body
In the rushes and the mud
She lay where she had fallen
They had hunted high and low
Winter had come early
She'd been covered up by snow
ย
ย
It took an hour to cut her
From the spot where she was found
A bright red velvet ribbon
Was tangled in her gown
Her skin was icy white
Her veins were thin and blue
There was black ink on her fingers
And blood inside her shoes
ย
Destroying angels
A fatal kiss
This made honey upon her lips
She was so pure without a doubt
Until the last red drop leaked out
ย
Some days they are so shameful
No words for them exist
Everyone was tearful when
They let her in the crib
I stood by the graveside
And my song the best
My sins and all my secrets burn
Like fat inside my chest
I could tell you that I loved you
More than I ever loved myself
I swore I would never harm a hair upon her head
But I stole her made new beauty
She will never lie again
I stuffed her full of death caps
And I killed my angel dead
Destroying angels
A fatal kiss
This made honey upon her lips
She was so pure without a doubt
Until the last red drop leaked out
