Curse of the Immortal

you shiver as I hold you in my arms
holding you close to my cold silent chest
feeling your heat radiating through me
would you die for me?
Because this is your test.

You fell for me, foolish mortal,
A soulless creature of the night
not your type of storybook Nosferatu,
I walk among my prey in a world of light

You laid asleep in your bed
hoping your broken heart would mend
by loving me, you healed it,
but now it is your end.

I made a vow to this silent heart of mine
that I would kill this insolent race
because of a mortal from my past
made this heart of stone, break....

And now you shall feed my lust for vengeance,
to kill all those who could ever get close enough to hurt me
because the one who did, died in my arms
as you will tonight, the last love you shall ever see

I kill because I cannot die, oh how I wish I could
to be with my love forever, to end this pain
so I am forced to survive, and I will watch you,
as I drain you and watch your blood become a mere stain

But tonight I will let you kill me,
because tonight is the night my love died
at the hand of another, and because,
that night, was the first and the last time, I ever cried....
