Corro to Vampiress - the man -------------------------------------------
A tragic Shadow hides herself once more from the dawn
So little time to be
With blinded eyes
They criticize
Apart from all we see
Enough of this, she screams
And with one dark kiss
Not on the lips
To drink from the river of dreams
Eternally undead
Sleeps on no earthly bed
Keeping sole council and caring not for what they said.
Another one with time did come
And though his sight was dim, and his spirit broken
He saw right through the Shadow
Caught her tears and heard her song though not a word was spoken.
I tell you now before I plunge this knife into my heart
When the wind spoke your name the darkness came
My soul cried out, no longer wishing to depart
For I would dwell forever in the black
And I would take so many things back
Trade my salvation for the state of elation
Or live life a dead man in eternal damnation
And he offered his blood
Her mouth opened wide
And she offered her tears
As he started burning inside
The transition was slow
And gradually the pain did grow
Till all he felt was the sting;
A dark mysterious thing.
Then it was done
The evil had won
Now for a dark eternity
He had her stone cold heart.
I love this! The last 4 stanzas complete it nicely and capture what the first ones were trying to impart. Not sure if that makes sense completely but I think you get the idea.
