The Vampire's Bride


A Vampire’s Bride
How could you leave me
When I begged of you to stay?
Why won’t you listen
To a single word I say?

You said you’d take me with you
But your fangs just were not sharp,
You said we’d be together
But instead you broke my heart.

I watched you as you died
I watched the light as it left your eyes.
Then I saw the new light there
Like stars shining in the sky.

I know of your rebirth,
I know what you’ve become.
I know what they put in the earth
The empty casket they thinks you’re home.

They lied when they said they wanted me,
Because they just wanted you.
They lied to have you near to them
They knew what you would do.
But tonight I seek my vengeance
Their lies they have to pay.
This will be the last time
I see light of day.

You’ll either take me with you
Or burn along their side.
You’ll either make me one of you,
Or blood red tears you will cry.

I know you have it in you,
And you know I have in me.
The fire is lit, time to choose
Or my face will be the last you see.

Upon the night breeze now I fly
With you forever by my side,
Locked in love and locked in death,
I am the vampire’s bride.
