Her Ghost in the Fog ~ Lyrics
Cradle of Filth

"The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait
soft winds whisper the bidding of trees
as this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart
and the Midnightmare trampling of dreams
But on, no tears please
Fear and pain may accompany Death
But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty
as We shall see..."

She was divinity's creature
That kissed in cold mirrors
A Queen of Snos
Far beyond compare
Lips attuned to symmetry
Sought Her everywhere
Dark liqoured eyes
An Arabian nightmare...

She shone on watercolours
Of my pondlife as pearl
Until those who couldn't have Her
Cut Her free of this World

That fateful Eve when...
The trees stank of sunset and camphor
Their lanterns chased phantoms and threw
An imquisitive glance, like the shadows they cast
On my love picking rue by the light of the moon

Putting reason to flight
Or to death as their way
They crept through woods mesmerized
By the taffeta Ley
Of Her hips that held sway
Over all they surveyed
Save a mist on the rise
(A deadly blessing to hide)
Her ghost in the fog

They raped left...
(Five men of God)
...Her ghost in the fog

Dawn discovered Her there
Beneath the Cedar's stare
Silk dress torn, Her raven hair
Flown to gown Her beauty bared
Was starred with frost, I knew Her lost
I wept 'til tears crept back to prayer

She'd sworn Me vows in fragrant blood
"Never to part
Lest jealous Heaven stole our hearts"

Then this I screamed:
"Come back to Me
I was born in love with thee
So why should fate stand inbetween?"

And as I drowned Her gentle curves
With dreams unsaid and final words
I espied a gleam trodden to earth
The Church bell tower key...

The village mourned her by the by
For She'd been a witch
their Men had longed to try
And I broke under Christ seeking guilty signs
My tortured soul on ice

A Queen of snow
Far beyond compare
Lips attuned to symmetry
Sought Her everywhere
Trappistine eyes
An Arabian nightmare...

She was Ersulie possessed
Of a milky white skin
My porcelain Yin
A graceful Angel of Sin

And so for Her...
The breeze stank of sunset and camphor
My lantern chased Her phantom and blew
Their Chapel ablaze and all locked in to a pain
Best reserved for judgement that their bible construed...

Putting reason to flight
Or to flame unashamed
I swept form cries
Mesmerized
By the taffeta Ley
Or Her hips that held sway
Over all those at bay
Save a mist on the rise
A final blessing to hide
Her ghost in the fog

And I embraced
Where lovers rot...
Her ghost in the fog

Her ghost in the fog

Thank you very much! It was my first time with fog effects and I thought I had just about failed in that XD Not the best though I might do and updated version when I get better. I also have a manip done for the song "Nymphetamine" I think it came out pretty good too. It had my first attempt of blood in it lol. Thanks for the comment and the fav though!

OMG! This so reminds me of the TV show, Supernatural! >.< It's so scary that I chickened out! Grrr... I hate it when that happens.

Wow. I'm also the same way. I like the show, but I can't watch it for more than five minutes! T_T

Haha I force myself to watch them because I love them XD But has you seen Montel with that Sylvia Brown the psychic? Those are REALLY freaky too!

CrAZyKat521 In reply to LeTombeCelui [2005-09-22 19:27:43 +0000 UTC]

Is that in Supernatural? Or another TV show? One way or another, I haven't seen it because, like I said, I can't even watch the show for more that five minutes and I don't really watch TV that much.

Well, Montel is a talk show and such (not one of those "you cheated on me with my sister!?!?!" type talk shows though XD) and on Wednesdays he has this psychic lady come in . . . it's wiggy because I got really curious and wrote her a letter and when she replied back she actually had the truth written in it. It was pretty creepy. But people talk about ghosts that are in their home and such and most are just fine and such but now and then it just gets really freaky now that I know she is really like a real psychic. I mean I had no physical record of what happened but my Grandmother was alive when it happened (the thing was just a family matter btw) and she nailed it.

Hehe, at the first look I didn't really find the situation too foggy .. there seems to be a bit of fog in the background, but the prevailing feeling for the environment would be dusk - night almost, since it's quite dark already. Apart from that, the various elements fit the situations just fine: the grass is not too bright and green (even though there are a few green strands, most are in brown and yellow, as one knows from various older horror movies), and looks slightly moist even, in my opinion, which adds to the spooky feeling of your work, as do the crooky branches from the tree in the middle (which is pretty dark, by the way .. I have a hard time making out details there).
The girl's pose looks interesting .. I can't quite tell what she's doing, but she seems to be looking aside while walking (or floating) away from the viewer .. who knows what happened there (by the way, I just thought of that, you could be placing hints - unless there is already one and I missed it - so the viewer might get a vague idea of the background story - right now, we see her floating there, but we don't really know too much of the reason, you know? So I can't really settle for a certain feeling either - the piece itself is spooky, and ghost-themes like these are usually sad, but for some reason she doesn't seem too lost here .. buuut that's just me). You did a nice job making her appear as a ghost, in some places more translucent than in others, and all bright, soooo I didn't even have a second of doubt she could not be a ghost - nicely done, and nice choice of stock art.
The background I didn't see in her gallery though .. did you take it yourself? Well done, in any case, and keep up the good work

Yea it was my first time with "fog" effects I'm still learning blending ^_^** But yea most of the pose and such can be explained by the song lyrics and such and I just happened to find the perfect stock for it. No I didn't take the stock pic and I have no clue where I got it I'm thinking google or something but I found it in my stock folder. I'm really glad I got that spooky feeling though ^_^ it makes me really proud of my work to get comments like this and it really does help me appreciate the skill I do have. Sometimes I get doubts because I am a beginner still with my graphics but all in time I'm going to get better and such, but thank you very much for the comment and it does help I will keep what said in mind when working on my next one with the same effects. Thanks much!

No it was just for fun, but I'd love it if I could make a poster out of it without it making it look all cruddy.
