Cradle of Filth (engl. für „Wiege des Drecks“) ist eine Metal-Band aus Suffolk, England, gegründet 1991 in Colne Lancs. Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Metal-Bands mit extremerer Spielweise konnte Cradle of Filth zunehmend kommerzielle Erfolge verbuchen, weswegen ihr von vielen Vertretern des Black Metal Ausverkauf und Kommerzialisierung vorgeworfen wird.

Sunset, expect
This to be your last with Our vast return
As Death is set
At three sixes where hill-beacons burn
Darkness, undress
Your descending skirts yield a thirsting altar
Blood-red, yet still unfed
Lips distend ending, time to falter
Darkness
Welcome arms wide and crucified...
The slaughter
Darkness
Lightening freezes seven
Darkness
Outtakes from the rape of the world
(Darkness)
Sins expelled from Heaven
Now befoul from the bowels of Hell
Where the tragic in theory and practice fell
Last prayers, hang in the air
Each unto their own rag and bonemeal saviours
Strung where crippled vultures dare
Golgotha
Coughs another cross to grave God's failure
Darkness
Once the forests spired
Darkness
Nurtured in Nature'heart
(Darkness)
Now dreat cedars feed the pyres
Need-fires lit for greater harm
Darkness
As Her children toy with razors
Darkness
Sightless and deeply scarred
Darkness
And the moon arose to phase Her
Cracks a grin so wide it hides the stars
And lights Our path
Back through the shattered glass
(We come like drumming thunder
Tides enwreathed in scum and plunder
Kraken-teethed to tear asunder
All those too blind to see...)
Where the tragic in theory and practice meet
Deranged, uncaged
We rage like a plague through this age of greed
Sowers of discord, growing wars to reap
A terrible crop to beat a vicious retreat
Scorched Earth, rebirth
Disintered in the writhe of the lone survivor
Whose worth is worse than the curse
Of Sardonicus choking on his own saliva
Who shares the last laugh now
Dead wedded fates fulfil their vows?
Foot in mouth of sacred cows
(Foot in mouth of sacred cows)
Facedown in dust and poisoned ground...
