Was all in vain, or did you cry?    No need to ask; my tears have run dry    This is the end of my pity    I wait to die       You now the living, me now the dead    You now the living, me now the dead       To prove that you loved me    Mere words could not have said    Biting into skin, into flesh, into me    Taking all you could    Oh, I'd still give you blood    Just to paint your lips    If you should wish them red    My desires your kiss completed    But only now I can see    The vicious joy when you took delight    Behind each kiss your poison bite    And when my all was given    And you had taken    O doglike Judas, you did disappear       Was all in vain, or did you cry?    No need to ask       You now the living, me now the dead    You now the living, me now the dead
