Draculesti Pt. 2: Serpent Kingdom

I renounce god
This is how I am repaid
I will rise up from my own death
Forever a slave

I feel myself changing
I hear voices in my dreams
The mice in the attic
Stomping like elephants

Lost in a sea of wonder, doubt and fear
Upon this altar
I wake from horrible nightmares
Such sweet music they make

Love lost, immortality gained
Love lost, forever the same
Ecstasy, lust for her blood
Agony and promises of peace

For hundreds of years
I've worn this crown of sympathy
Sinning without remorse or pity
All of these terrible memories
Such tortures upon me

Fangs drip wet of weakness
The worlds cross to bear
Lifeless, souless
Hated and feared

Warped by the ravages
And blisters of time
Misinterpreted, twisted, distorted demise

Love lost, immortality gained
Love lost, forever the same
Ecstasy in lust for her blood
Agony and promises of peace

I can hear the sound of birds
They sing
Silenced by stirred wood and ruffled leaves
Terrific beautiful melodies
I call to her in winds!

From this old church
I am excommunicated
Suicide graves are desecrated
Ageless
Old, gaunt and strange
Moving as dust
The dead travel fast

Now horrid, whispered gothic myth
Once a great Romanian prince
Now a shell of what is left
Their pale king of ashes

Great pillar of past down story
Dark summit of forgotten fears
Dizzying visions, werewolf legends
Listen, he grows near

I cannot be saved for I am cursed
Mourning weary of an unquenched thirst
Tears shed upon her final words
Dire loss yet undeterred
Across the fires of hell
I shall burn beside you
Sleep and find me
In another life
Give me peace
I miss you too much to forsake you

Whispered voice from what remains
My hearts been plunged with stakes
My spirits been locked in chains
My love first lost to flame
Across oceans of time
I have sailed to find you
Drink and join me
In eternal life
"Make me yours"
I love you too much to condemn you
