Парфюмер

[Intro] [Ghostly Female Spoken Word] He was born with no smell… no smell so he decided to steal mine… [Male Vocal] I will find the note… the top note… the HEART [Verse 1] I crawled from the gutter where the dead fish rot, A hunger for scent - it was all that I got. I steal the last sigh from the crook of one's skin, One virgin less – one more note in my sin. [Pre-chorus] [Ghostly Female spoken word] Stilled breath… cold glass… A throat cracked and gasped Stilled breath… cold glass… The perfect scent at last… [Chorus] (MALE) I AM THE PERFUME OF THE VOID! (FEMALE) And I'm the flower he destroyed… (MALE) THE NOTE THAT NEVER DIES! (FEMALE) He kissed my skin – then watched my fading eyes… [Verse 2] I climbed the bones where God has no throne, Wrote my name in a virgin's groan. Laura's red hair – jasmine, grease, a tune – One hammer blow, and her life ends soon. [Breakdown] Step one – strip the flesh of innocence. Step two – press her hair in the fat. Step three – distill the scream into a liquid. Step four – wear her ghost as MY PERFUME… [Pre-chorus] Stilled breath… cold glass… A throat cracked and gasped Stilled breath… cold glass… The perfect scent at last… [Final Chorus] (MALE) I AM THE PERFUME OF THE VOID! (FEMALE) And I'm the flower he destroyed… (MALE) THE NOTE THAT NEVER DIES! (FEMALE) He kissed my skin – then watched my fading eyes… [Music fades] [Ghostly Female Spoken Word] Can you smell me now? [Male vocal] THIS SMELL… WILL BE ALWAYS WITH ME… THE PERFUMER! [Breakdown] [Male] THEY ARE ALL JUST INGREDIENTS. [Ghostly Female – fading echo] Ingredients… (Ingredients…) (Ingredients…) [Outro] [Female solo] He climbed the mountain of the dead And poured our souls upon his head Twelve virgins' breath, one jar of rue But the only scent he never knew… Was his own… [fade to static] [End]
