Ritual of Shadows

Verse 1 I watch you writhe beneath the moon, Your pulse a drum, my perfect tune. Veins like rivers, skin like silk, I drink your terror, taste your guilt. Fingers trace where fear ignites, Every shiver feeds the night. You kneel, you burn, you plead, you ache, Each moment more than flesh can take. Pre-Chorus Hush now, darling, don’t resist, Your cries are fog, my fingers twist. I draw you close, inhale your pain, Your surrender stains my veins. Chorus I am the predator in your bones, The shadow that devours your moans. Velvet chains, teeth that bite, I am the hunger in the night. Your soul drips slowly into my hands, I sculpt your fear like grains of sand. There’s no mercy, there’s no dawn— You are mine, and I am drawn. Verse 2 Candles gutter, wax like blood, You’re trembling in my sacred flood. I whisper sins you’ve never known, Mark your flesh, claim your moan. Every gasp, a sacrament, Every tear, a covenant. I am the darkness, raw and pure, Your devotion—my only cure. Pre-Chorus Silence now, your body pleads, Every ache sows wicked seeds. You cannot hide, you cannot flee, You are bound eternally to me. Chorus I am the predator in your bones, The shadow that devours your moans. Velvet chains, teeth that bite, I am the hunger in the night. Your soul drips slowly into my hands, I sculpt your fear like grains of sand. There’s no mercy, there’s no dawn— You are mine, and I am drawn. Bridge I feast on trembling, feast on breath, A cathedral built on love and death. The whip, the chain, the whispered name, All blur in this sacrificial flame. Your essence coils around my will, I am the void, the silence, still. Each heartbeat mine, each shiver known, I reign eternal on my obsidian throne. Final Chorus I am the predator in your bones, The shadow that devours your moans. Chains of velvet, teeth of fire, I am the lust you can’t desire. You melt beneath my ritual hands, Your soul a canvas where darkness stands. No dawn, no mercy, no escape— Forever kneeling in my wake.
