Silent castle by the sea upon the cliffs at bay Moon, she shines and by her beams enshrouds these ancient walls Moon, she sings of her pain, of her tears and woes And lonely I hear and suffer equal ache as she
I see no stars in the skies No sun to give me strength Lonely as I roam around These shores one more night I see no stars in the skies No light to bring me smile Lonely as I head back home Bearing grieveful thoughts
Though now it's bleak Once they were so pure Not always have I grieved
Recalling days of distant joys Remembering them smile Warmth and laughter filled my days Filled my nights and eves Warmth and laughter, distant joys Escaping evermore
Under the wretched starless skies In where I roamed alone Where the darkness crept by my side Where I laid my eyes I felt this pain, I've beared my pain As long as I recall
Here I walk, empty and hated Filled with nothing, but memories Memories are all I have And even they began to fade As I walked forth I heard such voice Delightful and so sweet I stopped for a moment and looked around But no one there I saw
But then I turned and looked right back Looked into my past I saw this beauty, mystery veiled Dressed in darkest light Where I saw thee pale and solemn There my heart was yours
She gave me laughter and nights of love She gave all I craved She seduced my thirst, fed my hunger Seduced my darkest prays
But there was cost I couldn't see Beared in these distant words: "Where days fade into night Darkness conquers light"
And there by the moors By the distant woods She turned to me and kissed me good She bit a piece of me I laid her down and kissed her back Like any man would do She whispered in my ears her lust Her prays, her darkest past
Upon those bloody moors You made me one of yours
I felt her teeth on my neck I felt her lifeless breath She drank, she laughed She danced her lust She drank all out of me I felt her teeth on my neck As all my life had gone
She whispered in my ear she'd love me Forever and again Then I felt how life flowed back Into my empty veins
As I laid there dead, but living I feared what had come to me I feared and cursed, I feared and prayed I cried and dimmed away
Shades, growing high They lengthen and rise Rising up high To face my demise
I feel the searing winds beneath my wings Tempting beats of heart from afar Pulsing through the night guide my flight Seducing smell of blood, gift from gods
Those forsaken gods
Since this day, I roamed again Lifeless and alone Hunting down every night Someone to fill my thirst
Still there's no starlight in the skies Though centuries have passed No peace nor comfort in these woods No will that should be done
Then she appeared, lost and lonely Calm and precious one I saw the pleasure in her eyes I heard her lust in voice
I saw the strength of life in her I couldn't take away Strength of life, so pure and sweet I smelled her young, maid flesh
All went red, I could not see I could not hear nor feel She fulfilled my lust and thirst for blood Yet she never rose again Gently as I laid her down Amongst the woods and stones
I feel treacherous winds beneath my wings Tragedies to be unfold at this hour They pulsed through the night, misguided my flight I have tasted fire, Carpathian desire
