Day by day,
I'm growing stronger from this thirst,
I'm living longer
Behind these eyes,
Crimson thoughts,
You won't survive it through the night
She falls away from me this time.
She falls away from me.
Thirsting for blood I pierce your,
Neck with my teeth as you begin to,
Drive a stake through my chest and watch as I fade into the
As night falls it comes with one desire
So here I am,
I feel it deep inside
It cries to me
Like fire in your eyes and burns for you
I grasp it with both hands
I am so helpless to the call
She falls away from me this time.
She falls away from me.
Thirsting for blood I pierce your,
Neck with my teeth as you begin to,
Drive a stake through my chest and watch as I fade into the
I cannot see my reflection
I cannot bathe in your light
I cannot breathe your life
I cannot stay for you, you
Thirsting for,
Thirsting for blood I pierce your,
Neck with my teeth as you begin to,
Drive a stake through my chest and watch as I fade into the
Tonight I will feast on your flesh
