Vampire Verse – 1

Sad Vampire Man

Let us go to the theater
Let us go to the grave
Let us go to our sacred sleeping
The only escape for a slave

For if lifes essence shall slow
So shall we become Vampires
Within our mirrored madness
Our shattered salvation
Our painful peace

Knowing darkness as light
And light as night
For as flesh we bite
For as blood seeming bright

Some familiar – fraudulent faces
Some dim – dreary disgraces
God hath forsaken me
Satan has sent to kill
I find peace neither heaven nor hell

Why do I dwell in ironic epitome
Why do I dwell in paradoxical hell
Who’s jerking my soul strings
Who’s severed my angels wings?

I’ve been born
Unto the storm
Sealed forever more
Within a dream
