April Always
Lyrics and music by Michael Louis
Long days, and ghastly rays, in summer’s haze
Winter always ends too soon
Longing to revere the cold again
April always comes too soon
Daylight’s affliction just drains my will
Snow and ice, and endless nights, in paradise
Springtime comes at such a price
Aching to bask in the dark again
April always comes too soon
Winter takes all of the noise away
Cold winds wrap around and comfort me
Snowfall will subdue this angry heart
Daylight’s affliction just drains my will
The sun breaks all solace and burns my skin
April always comes too soon
Winter takes all of the noise away
Cold winds wrap around and comfort me
Long days, and ghastly rays, in summer’s haze
April always comes too soon
Longing to revere the cold again
April always comes too soon
Snow and ice, and endless nights, in paradise
April always comes too soon
Winter takes all of the noise away
Cold winds wrap around and comfort me
April always comes too soon
Daylight’s affliction just rains my will
April always comes too soon
The sun breaks all solace and burns my skin
April always comes too soon
April tears my world apart

Crawl
Lyrics and music by Michael Louis
On all fours, down on the floor
Crawl to your fix, crawl to your whore
Slam a little junk into your veins
Convince yourself you can’t abstain
Manage your hypocrisy
Impress your theocracy
Each new week forgives the last
You’re cleared for Sunday mass
Crawl, crawl, crawl, so you don’t fall
All bashed up like a broken doll
Crawl, crawl, crawl, to the root of it all, just crawl!
Money, sex, amphetamines
A woman has her secret dreams
Become a martyr for your sex
Drain one man, move to the next
Tell yourself it’s all too much
End it all with a woman’s touch
Load up the kids, round up the dog
Drive off the bridge at the “word of god”
Crawl, crawl, crawl, so you don’t fall
All bashed up like a broken doll
Don’t pretend you’re above it all, just crawl!
Crawl or pray, it’s all the same
To a herd obsessed with shame
Beg your priest, please save your soul
Because you can’t curb your control
Crawl, crawl, crawl, so you don’t fall
All bashed up like a broken doll
Crawl, crawl, crawl, to the foot of the pope
Buy salvation like a bag of dope
Bless me father, for I have sinned
Same time next week, back again
Crawl, crawl, crawl, to the Catholic bait
Claim your place at heaven’s gate
Believe in him or hell awaits
Burn in the fire, for god is great
Crawl, crawl, crawl, so you don’t fall
All bashed up like a broken doll
Crawl, crawl, crawl, to the root of it all, just crawl!
Crawl, crawl, crawl, so you don’t fall
All bashed up like a broken doll
Don’t pretend you’re above it all, just crawl!

Poisoned Ease
Lyrics and music by Michael Louis
Tonight, we dine
One candle guides you blithely,
Headlong to me
In low light we will dance
Drink of this wine
Forget what broke us down
Redress is ours,
This last word is ours to scream
Tonight, we die
Purge ourselves of done-for flesh
Though time has failed,
We’ll have the final say
Mourn, not to cry
Our suffering ends tonight
Sing our swan song
As we’re eluding time
We’ll halt this dark disease
We’ll cheat death with poisoned ease
Sleep, sleep forever, my love
Feel no more pain from this blight
I lay here with you in life
I will lay here with you, again in death
We’ll halt this dark disease
We’ll cheat death with poisoned ease
Close your eyes, and I’ll close mine
Forever

Misfortune of Me
Lyrics and music by Michael Louis
When you search in me all the things that fall short
And wipe clean my jester’s tear
You’ll find joy, tightly wound in torment
Like a stillborn sheathed in grief
We’d be at odds forever
Too much ground to weather
Don’t fall in love, when you refuse to see
Don’t set yourself up to bear the misfortune of me
Misfortune of me!
When you find in me all that once held passion
And sift through the damaged goods
You’ll choke on heavy air, blinded in the darkness
My contagion in your veins
We’d be at odds, forever
Too much ground to weather
Don’t fall in love, when you refuse to see
Don’t set yourself up to bear the misfortune of me
Toxicity!
Don’t fall in love when you refuse to see
Don’t set yourself up to bear the misfortune of me
This thing we have will be your albatross
Miles and miles burdened by my cross
Don’t fall in love when you refuse to see
Don’t set yourself up to bear the misfortune of me
Split and fractured, devoid of rapture
So far removed and destitute
Pain and heartache, desperation
Hate and spite and alienation
Woe, despair and bleak negation
Misery and cross-examination
Don’t fall in love when you refuse to see
Don’t set yourself up to bear the misfortune of me

New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough.

Crimson Curse

Absolutely one of my favorite goth rock bands and albums!! I listen to this album on repeat sometimes; it just never gets old to me. It’s so haunting and beautiful in places and dark and gritty in others, which makes it exemplary goth rock music in my opinion. Exactly the kind of listening experience I want and enjoy so much. Thank you <3

An epic dark rock record that will make fans of Sisters of Mercy swoon—massive chords and choruses, plus gothic grandeur.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.
