Track 10 from the album The Golden Age of Grotesque also known as “♠”.
Certainly one of the most ‘Grotesque’ elements ‘of The Golden Age’ is that which the song Spade is about; ‘Lustmord’ or ‘Sex Murder’. Giving a woman power over a man’s heart also gives her the power to destroy it. And with that...
[Verse 1]
The beauty spot was borrowed
Now my sweet knife rusts tomorrow
I'm a confession that is waiting to be heard
Burn your empty rain down on me
Whisper your deathbeat so softly
We bend our knees at the altar of my ego
[Chorus]
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
[Verse 2]
All my lilies' mouths are open
Like they're begging for dope and hoping
Their bitter petal chant "We can
Kick, you won't be back"
I'm a diamond that is tired
Of all the faces I've acquired
We must secure the shadow ere
The substance fades
[Chorus]
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
[Bridge]
And we said 'till we die
And we said 'till we die
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
You drained my heart and made a spade
But there's still traces of me in your veins
[Outro]
And we said 'till we die
And we said 'till we die
