Gone are the days we frisked in graveyards -
Jouncing on vaults, dancing to sea-bards.
Waves, like curves, calm seas, tempests above -
Should have known, Nyx claims all that's love.
Take and slaughter our taste of love,
Spread heartbreaks, blows, distress;
Obliterate the sinless dove,
To clean monarchy's mess.
