Your milk white neck
Soft skin so pure
I have a fever
You have the cure
Your heart is racing
You cannot breathe
The sweat it glistens
Your body seethes
Darling I need a fix
Tonight, I’m feeling rather weak
Why is my love for you
In vein my dear, in vein
The lust I’m feeling
My thoughts impure
Can you forgive me
You seem unsure
Darling I need a fix
Tonight, I’m feeling rather weak
Why is my love for you
In vein my dear, in vein
Why is my love for you
In vein my dear, in vein
Let me in
Can I devour you
Oh mistress please
You know that I need you
Dance with me darling
My arms around you
A crimson dream
Such sweet embrace
No need to scream
Darling I need a fix
Tonight, I’m feeling rather weak
Why is my love for you
In vein my dear, in vein
Why is my love for you
In vein my dear, in vein
Let me in
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Watch and guard me
Through the night
And wake me
With the morning light

Crimson Dreams
04:53
|
|
||
She dances in the twilight
A child of the moon
Her spirit is so free
A life of mystery
Can I catch her soul
Place it in a box
Keep it for eternity
Crimson dreams
You raise me up,
You give me life
Crimson dreams
Touching her flames
As darkness falls
I want to see inside her soul
Hear the raven’s call
And feel alive once more
Crimson dreams
You raise me up
You give me life
Crimson dreams
My grave desire
You take me higher
Touch me and hold me
Feel me and taste me
As she falls into my arms
Feeds my burning heart
Deep inside I feel entranced
Will she feel my bloody kiss
Upon her tender skin
Feel the blade go in
Crimson dreams
You raise me up
You give me life
Crimson dreams
Don’t fade away
Remain in light
Crimson dreams
You raise me up
You give me life
Crimson dreams
Touching her flames
As darkness falls
Crimson dreams
You raise me up
You give me life
Crimson dreams
My grave desire,
You take me higher

Standing in your tower
Thinking of love you lost
So hard to mask the pain
Your beauty it fades with time
Elisabeth
What Have you done
Daughters of darkness
They cry for you
They scream
Bathing in their blood
The virgin youth your aim
It will never bring him back
Your love has gone for good
Elisabeth
What have you done
Daughters of darkness
They cry for you
They scream
As you watch their souls descend
And their skin turns ashen white
You take a long hard
look in the mirror
But you don’t like what you see
The bodies pile up around you
As you try to turn back time
And nothing seems to fix it
Too late to turn things back
Elisabeth
What have you done
Daughters of darkness
They cry for you
Elisabeth
What have you done
Daughters of darkness
They cry for you
They scream

The Hunger
04:48
|
|

I can see you
Standing in the shadows
Long black hair
Darkness in your eyes
Catch my gaze
See into my soul
Be my witness
Will you lose control
I can't take this
Fever it grips me
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
Flesh so divine
Such sweet innocence
You don't realise
What I want from you
I can't take this
Fever it grips me
Let me show you
My affliction
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on
Let me feed tonight
I can't take this
Fever it grips me
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
I've got the hunger
One drop is all I need
I've got the hunger baby
Come on let me feed
I've got the hunger
I've got the hunger baby
Let me feed tonight

Your Nightmare
05:00
|
|
||
I am the stranger
The faceless one
A raven calling
The loaded gun
Such cruel intentions
A blackened soul
Your pain my pleasure
Heart like a hole
Try not to show him
The fear he craves
It will not end well
He’s dug the graves
I am your nightmare
Lives in your dreams
No one can wake you
Or hear your screams
A streetlight flickers
The shadows loom
Footsteps get closer
A date with doom
Unholy pleasures
Such grim delight
You can’t imagine
Your twisted plight
My blades are sharpened
The chains too strong
Your screaming terror
Such sweet song
Try not to show him
The fear he craves
It will not end well
He's dug the graves
I am your nightmare
A faceless ghoul
Without reason
A flesh cesspool
I am your nightmare
Your life my toy
You are my playtime
A schizoid joy
I want to witness
Your final breath
Look in your eyes
And see your death
This fascination
I have in torment
Just like an angel
Drowned in cement
You did not listen
To all those stories
Your mama warned you
Don't close your eyes
I am your nightmare
You won’t awaken
A shrouded creature
Your life forsaken
I am your nightmare
You’re damned to hell
A long descent
The last farewell
I am your nightmare
Lives in your dreams
No one can wake you
Or hear your screams

The Beast Within
04:45
|
|
||
The air is crisp and icy
Autumn moon so bright
Forest still and silent
It beckons me tonight
The change is coming
Cursing through my veins
There's no escaping
My body as it strains
The beast within me
Coming out tonight
Your throbbing veins
My sweet delight
My body shaking
The blood runs cold
Sharp teeth awaken
Lycan dreams unfold
Can you resist me
I smell your fear
No need to run
Or hide my dear
The change is coming
Cursing through my veins
There's no escaping
My body as it strains
The beast within me
Coming out to play
I smell your blood
It's time to slay
The beast within me
Running wild tonight
Darkness is unbound
Giving you a fright
Total transformation
Teeth and claws and fur
Devilish intentions
A killing connoisseur
Fill my heart with silver
Shoot me dead my dear
When my time is over
You won't shed a tear
The change is coming
Cursing through my veins
There's no escaping
My body as it strains
The beast within me
Coming out tonight
Your throbbing veins
My sweet delight
The beast within me
Coming out to play
I smell your blood
Its time to slay
The beast within me
Running wild tonight
Darkness is unbound
Giving you a fright

Dark Cities
03:53
|
|
||
My mind is racing
Thoughts black and cold
These times are changing
A future foretold
Can I survive this
A world of pain
Am I to struggle
Is it in vain
Dark cities
Black times
No way to exit
This life of mine
Trapped in my head
No time to breathe
This curse upon me
That I bequeath
Dark cities
Black times
My soul is broken
Along my spine
Dark cities
Black times
No way to exit
This life of mine
The sky is raging
Damage is done
Fall into darkness
Beyond the sun
A lonely planet
Without a chance
Is this reality
Funeral dance
Dark cities
Black times
My soul is broken
Along my spine
Dark cities
Black times
No way to change
Or reassign
Dark cities
Black times
No way to exit
This life of mine

Dance Into Darkness
04:48
|
|
||
At the midnight hour
Veils of tears await
Memories so grave
A trick to seal your fate
Time to light the candles
Let the incense burn
Spirits now are calling
Time to take your turn
Dance with me into darkness
Play my wicked game
And dance into darkness
A dangerous obsession
Malevolence in mind
What sweet release they seek
Your love for them so blind
Dance with me into darkness
Play my wicked game
And dance into darkness
You gotta
Dance with me into darkness
Spell the demons name
And dance into darkness
Going straight to hell
Ready for absolution
The spirit is unbound
The life you had before you
No longer to be found
Dance with me into darkness
Play my wicked game
And dance into darkness
Cannot break the circle
Too late you made your choice
The game was an illusion
And now its found a voice
Dance with me into darkness
Play my wicked game
And dance into darkness
You gotta
Dance with me into darkness
Spell the demons name
And dance into darkness
Going straight to hell

Watch Me Bleed
04:21
|
|
||
Heaven comes to he who waits
But I know I'm getting nowhere
And all the deeds of yesterday
Have really helped to pave my way
Though there's no one near me now
How come everyone can touch me
You see the torture on my brow
Relates to neither here nor now
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
Although my face is straight, it lies
My body feels the pain and cries
Here the table is not bare
I am full but feeling empty
For all the warmth it feels so cold
For one so young I feel so old
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
It's not allowed to be unkind
But still the hate lives in my mind
I'll make no noise, I'll hide my pain
I'll close my eyes, I won't complain
I'll lie right back and take the blame
And try to tell myself I'm living
And when it's all been said or done
Where do I go? Where do I run?
What's left of me or anyone
When we've denied the hurting?
And when it's all been said or done
Where do I go? Where do I run?
What's left of me or anyone
When we've denied the hurting?
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
And all the deeds of yesterday
Have really helped to pave my way
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
Watch me bleed, bleed forever
And all the deeds of yesterday
Have really helped to pave my way

Epilogue
04:12
|
|
||
The night it fades
And the end is near
I feel my veins
They burn inside
My skin it crawls
As black turns grey
The urge it fades
I must retreat
My journey starts
A long goodbye
The forest looms
Across the hills
A glint of light
As shadows form
The castle gates
They draw me in
Across the valley
As daybreak comes
Chasing shadows
A race for time
I must escape
And save myself
The cellar doors
My tomb awaits
Farewell my love
I shall return
To your embrace
Another night
Farewell my love
I shall return
To your embrace
Another night
