One body lies in here tonight
Glowing in the candle light
The fire burns and watches me
In the chapel, gloomily
Forbidden I know this place once was
Broken by the chains of love
Love not that of mind or heart
But nothing more than my gruesome art
I can hear the virgin bleed
I\'m starving and I must proceed
She shivers and for help she cries
She looks to me with teary eyes
I feel so guilty, and yet I don’t
I want to stop and yet I won’t
I tell her that I’ll make her free
From her mortal misery
I hold her body close to mine
And tell her everything is fine
But yet she struggles harder now
Praying, hoping and pleading out loud
I cannot hold back anymore
Her faultless flesh my consuming lure
And when my teeth had broke the skin
And when I drank the blood from within
I felt no difference as she was falling
And even when her breath was stalling
My demon heart and mind were bent
On drinking to my hearts content
And now she’s in this “so-called” dream
Now she lies here in my wing
And when she wakes, she’ll feel all right
Except for where I left my bite
She’ll crave one thing, but naïve she remain
And hunger will bring on its pain
But when she figures out her desire
She knows what all it must require
A human soul, like hers that strayed
The death of someone has to pay
Or her remains can starve to death
She must preserve what little is left


I watch her as she lies here now
As she sleeps so safe and sound
Because nothing wants what I have taken
Her very blood has been forsaken
In this chapel, I sin no more
As this blood soaks in the floor
I look up to the crucifix
Pray that he’d forgive just this
This indulgence that I craved
I let her die, nothing saved
Then I drop her- I am cured
Her body lies there undisturbed
I\'m too much human as I can see
Too much passion has taken me….

Two bodies lie in here tonight
Glowing in the candle light
The fire burns and watches us
Radiant with bitter lust
