Vampiric Lust

Up from the dark earth Into the moonlight My thirst for blood Rings in my bones Up from the wet ground My senses sharp and ready The night begins anew The legends warning of monsters Lurking in the shadows, come out to kill The night’s air strengthens my bloodlust It’s in my nature, I must feed Strength beyond knowing Such depth of sight and sound And such power Beyond anything known I have lived through eras I have lived through floods I have witnessed destruction And I have bathed in its blood
