Les filles du cimetière
Tragique
et noire,
et légendaire,
La mort balaie,
en un éclair,
La ville entière,
au cimetière
Nous sommes
Les filles du cimetière
Dracula is cannibal
Walking down paris streets
A Saturday night
In a corner of a scary street
I perceived a shade
Oh my devil
Its nosferatu
It attack
Attack
Attack me
Attack me
Didn′t became a little bat
Look like a tramp
More than a vamp
Dracula est cannibal
Il a vidé mes entrailles
Didn’t suck the blood
He just eat your flesh
Didn′t suck the blood
He just eat your flesh
Dracula is cannibal
He ate my clavicle
Dracula is cannibal
He ate my clavicle
Didn’t suck the blood
He just eat your flesh
Didn’t suck the blood
He just eat your flesh
Dracula est cannibal
Il a vidé mes entrailles
Dracula is cannibal
He ate my clavicle
Dracula is cannibal
Didn′t suck the blood
He just eat your flesh
Didn′t suck the blood
He just eat youuuuuur
Dra cu la
Cannibal
Il a vidé mes entrailles
Dra cu la
Cannibal
Dra cu la
Cannibal
Dra cu la
Cannibal

Cannibal
Smoke My Brain
In the dark of the light
Something strange is going on,
They’re back from the grave,
and ready to Smoke My Brain.
Pen of blood
I Stand alone in my dark room
Writting words full of hate
Writting words full of pain
Writting words with no end
Closed between these four walls
I have no inspiration
I have no desire
I don’t feel anything
In my darked room
No pictures, just paintings
I paint things full of pain
I paint things full of red
The pen of blood
Spoke to me
The pen of blood
Speak for me
The pen of blood
Said to me
Written by blood I have in me
Stuck in my insane world
Stuck in my tortured mind
Buried in me
I cannot live, I cannot die
My desires, carried away
By the pen of blood!
Funebra
All those signs that you wouldn’t see
Tell what I’m not saying, In the clouds
Lift up your eyes to heaven
Listen to the Wind
My tears whisper in your ears
Falling leaves, it’s my pain
Water at night, it tears
Snow in the Sun
This is my sadness
This is my sadness
I have in me, too much trouble
I have in me, too much sorrow
I have in me, too many secrets
I have in me a desire to die, to die
Feel the wind freeze
Hitting your face
Smell the rain
Tell you of my tears
Oh my lover dear of my heart, beloved
You wouldn’t see the signs
You wouldn’t see in my eyes
You let me down
You forgot me for too long
You let me down, down, down
You Forgot me for too long
I have in me, too much trouble
I have in me, too much sorrow
I have in me, too many secrets
I have in me a desire to die, to die
I tried so many times
I cried too many times
Now the end is nigh
Listen to the bells
Ringing for my death
Listen to the bells
Clanging for my end
Angels from hell stole my soul
The Story
Opus Vitae is the second studio album by the French band The Cemetary Girlz, released on May 24, 2013, under the independent gothic record label Manic Depression Records. It followed their critically acclaimed underground debut, Smoke My Brain (2009).
Here is a breakdown of what makes this record notable:
Musical Style & Universe
If you are into dark, macabre atmospheres, this album is a textbook example of modern Deathrock, Goth Rock, and Batcave. Spearheaded by lead vocalist and guitarist Alien S. Pagan, the band delivers a heavily 1980s post-punk influenced sound packed with horror imagery.
The themes naturally revolve around gothic fiction and vampire folklore (featured in tracks like Dracula Is Cannibal and Los Vampiros Bandidos), death, cemeteries, and melancholy—all driven by sharp, resonant guitars and a graveyard vibe.
Impact & Reception
Opus Vitae was a defining milestone for The Cemetary Girlz. It solidified their status within the European underground scene, paving the way for extensive international tours and appearances at major dark music festivals, such as Germany’s Wave-Gotik-Treffen (WGT) and France’s Hellfest.
Physical Release Details
The original CD pressing was limited to 1,000 copies, packaged in a cardboard digisleeve featuring an 8-page booklet Pictures of Pere Lachaise Cemetery by AlienSPagan. A fun detail for collectors: part of the album art was created by the French underground artist Denis Grrr, renowned for his dark, erotic, and macabre illustrations.
