FONTHILL
I haunt this place
Tears wet on face
A manifest magnet
For scandal and disgrace
Angels heaven sends
Demons hell attends
Staving off malaise
By plotting my revenge
Welcome the night
The stars burning bright
Better to yearn today
Than to fade away
Velvet covers sin
Fortress built within
Waiting patiently
Secret and happy…
Velvet covers sin

Waiting patiently
Secret and happy...

PERRO
Master says, need more wood for the fire
Master says, need more flesh on the pyre
Master says, need more ash in the veins
Master says, need more blood in the drains
He's a man without limitations
He's a man without frustrations
Master says, get some boys from downtown
Master says, get my wife a new gown
Master says, greet the guests in the hall
Master says, make them scrape, make them crawl
He's a man with no satisfaction
He's a man with many distractions
Bemusement is no daunt to a king
Amusement, this king will do anything
Master says, greet the guests in the hall
Master says, make them scrape, make them crawl
He's a man with no satisfaction
He's a man with many distractions
Bemusement is no daunt to a king
Amusement, this king will do anything

JACOBIN
Each true goth hides a Jacobin
Exiled souls, all Jacobin
Godless power builds the Jacobin
Velvet blood spills the Jacobin
Where kings meet guillotines: Jacobin
A skull just a cup for the Jacobin
Terror, lust, pride, Jacobin
Lords of night, every Jacobin
Eros, ego, Jacobin
Riots sway, crowds dismay, Jacobin
Hands rend, souls bend, Jacobin
Nations fall, priests crawl, Jacobin
Rally reapers, Jacobin!
Blue books, no fucks, Jacobin!
Denial of each crown, Jacobin!
Radicals, Whigs, and Jacobins!
Eros, ego, Jacobin
Riots sway, crowds dismay, Jacobin
Hands rend, souls bend, Jacobin
Nations fall, priests crawl, Jacobin
Rally reapers, Jacobin!
Blue books, no fucks, Jacobin!
Denial of each crown, Jacobin!
Radicals, Whigs, and Jacobins!

THE CASTLE SPECTRE
Far from the haunts of men, of vice the foe,
The moon-struck child of genius and of woe,
Versed in each magic spell, and dear to fame,
A fair enchantress dwells, Romance her name.
She loathes the sun, or blazing taper's light:
The moon-beam'd landscape and tempestuous night
Alone she loves; and oft, with glimmering lamp,
Near graves new-open'd, or 'midst dungeons damp,
Drear forests, ruin'd aisles, and haunted towers,
Forlorn she roves, and raves away the hours!
Anon, when storms howl loud and lash the deep,
Desperate she climbs the sea-rock's beetling steep;
There wildly strikes her harp's fantastic strings,
Tells to the moon how grief her bosom wrings,
And while her strange song chaunts fictitious ills,
In wounded hearts Oblivion's balm distills.

MP FOR HINDON (WILTS)
Armour, skull and crone
A playful-hearted tone
Tower built from stone
A fortune yet untold
Emissaries attend
Opium my friend
Lovers they will send
The pleasures never end
I'll write an epic tome
Plywood castle for my home
For plantations I'll atone
Across the world be known
MP for Hindon (Wilts)
MP for Hindon (Wilts)
I’ll grab my quill and ink
Into despondency I'll sink
French brandy I will drink
And into the work I'll shrink
With my sex dwarf I will roam
Gothic authorship unknown
I'll be banned from every home
And in parliament enthroned
MP for Hindon (Wilts)

THE MONK
Found as boy, lost as man
As only scripture understands
A sight of beauty and of light
Devotion could not be denied
Nobility in his face
Divinity and loving grace
From purity to disgrace
How such a man lost his place
To fall, in sin and lust
Decay from flesh to dust
Passion forged in heart denied
A soul built only on pride
Temptation comes as a gift
Freedom arriving with a kiss
Senses burning with desire
Hypocrisy in the fire
Depravity now his path
A life of lust and trespass
As passions grow, faith it dies
The will, to not be denied
To fall, in sin and lust
Decay from flesh to dust
A passion forged in heart denied
A soul built only on pride
Fall again, time after time
As lust descends into crime
The trap is set, time will tell
The monk is cast down to hell
