(Verse 1)
In the velvet night of shadow's embrace,
Where the moon whispers sweetly to the face,
Of a creature cloaked in lustful lace,
Comes a tale of love in a crimson chase.
A vampire's heart beats in silent thrall,
For the maiden whose blood he craves to enthrall,
Her pulse, a symphony in this grand hall,
Where the walls echo with whispers of a caress so raw.
(Chorus)
Oh, Vampire's Lament, in the theatre of the damned,
Where desire and darkness hand in hand are dancing,
The curtains part, the candles dim,
And we watch the forbidden union advancing.
(Verse 2)
Her eyes, like pools of innocence lost,
Reflect the hunger that he cannot resist,
In the realm of the night, where every cost
Is paid in the currency of a passionate kiss.
He moves with the grace of the undying breed,
Her soft skin a canvas for his vile need,
As he sings her name on a breath of greed,
Their dance of seduction is a masquerade of bleed.
(Chorus)
Oh, Vampire's Lament, in the hallowed bed,
Where the sheets are stained with love and madness,
Their bodies intertwine, as the nightshade spreads,
And the line between life and death is sadness.
Oh, Vampire's Lament, in the crimson tide,
Where the line between love and horror is sliding,
Their souls forever intertwined,
In a dance of passion that knows no abiding.
(Bridge)
The organ swells with a mournful cry,
As the moon casts a crimson eye,
On the union that's bound to defy,
The morals of the world where humans reside.
But dawn approaches, a lover's bane,
The sun's kiss, a fiery chain,
Their passion must end, for now they sustain,
The curse of a love that can never be sated again.
(Chorus)
Oh, Vampire's Lament, as the day is born,
And the night retreats, leaving a scar upon the mourn,
Their hearts forever torn,
In a love that can never be reborn.
