Lyrics
Stake through the heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They increase in number due to multiple embraces
They're signified by fangs and pale, corpselike faces
They sleep during the day inside coffins hidden in dark places
As they rise by dawn the world suffers from their vicious gazes
They can cloak themselves by appearing as mist
and sneak up on you to drink blood from neck and wrist
Weakening the strength of each victim they've kissed
to enslave the feeble humanity with great list
Over the lands death will ride as all life will subside
The Vampires' desire for taking over is, oh, so strong
Now the time has come for their masks to be thrown aside
The only way to stop 'em is with a
Stake through the heart
They're immortal, but they can't survive a
Stake through the heart
but you won't find it easy to place that
Stake through the heart
The Vampires are mighty and don't like
Stakes through their hearts
They hunt for you under the darkened sky
Will you fight them back or break down and cry?
Their apparation calls for a heart-attack rather than a starteled sigh
Did you guess this verse was gonna end with: Die!
Their undead army has risen to pick a fight
with all you humans who feel the chills of fright
a vampiric kingdom in every line of sight
They're the royalties of the opposite side of the light
No one'll help, even though you've cried as your downfall and their uprise will coincide
Your only chance, humans, to prepare for a night so long,
is probably to run away and try to hide,
if you're not prepared to run some
Stakes through their hearts
nor garlic or crucifix can match a
Stake through the heart
and holy water is lame compared to a
Stake through the heart
Most effective, just like sunlight is a
Stake through the heart
Stake through the heart
and blade through the soul
or these mighty demons will swollow you whole
You've got to stop their black art
because their goal
is for this evil to be in control
They're evil and they drink blood and detest
Stakes through their hearts
They get grumpy when they're disturbed in their rest by a
Stake through the heart
You probably don't even dare to thrust a
Stake through the heart
Just sit there and pray while they
Take you like sharks
