Give it back, my heart and all I pray to the crimson moon [Chorus] Love turns to a curse, tearing through the dark Etched forever, the straw doll The bell tolls, the hour of demise I fall with you into the abyss [Verse 2] Clad in white, draped in darkness Casting my hair into black flames Embracing a shattered love A rain of blood pours down [Pre-Chorus] Hey, can you hear? This curse, a screaming voice “I love you,” those words A flower blooming in hell [Chorus] Love turns to a curse, tearing through the dark Etched forever, the straw doll The bell tolls, the hour of demise I fall with you into the abyss [Bridge] “I love you… I love you…” My soul, stained by madness The crimson moon devours all An unbreakable curse [Final Chorus] Love turns to a curse, tearing through the dark Etched forever, the straw doll The bell tolls, the final night I fall with you into the abyss [Outro] Turn to ash, my prayer Fading into the crimson moon
