Lyrics
On a night of drinks and dress
The dead rejoice, the saints confess
But at enchanted hours they say
Monsters rise again
By rumors heard and whispers spread
We feel a presence yet unsaid
A lost unholy remnant
That is destined to attend
Before the dim October sky
She comes, a guest, I question why
And at the door I stop and fight
A trance, locked with her eyes
Oh Lunarblood your nature shines
How have you danced through desperate times
Do human heartstrings lie within
The moonlit night's monarch
Oh show me are the stories true
Or do they lie to hide from you
A thrill that must awaken
A hunger from the dark
Steadfast, she moves across the room
A presence chilling as your doom
The traveler of two worlds
The howling deep divide
We freeze bewitched, perhaps, or dead
Entranced by moonbeams rusted red
But are these skipping hearts
From instinct or our pride
Before the dim October sky
She comes, a guest, I question why
And at the door I stop and fight
A trance, locked with her eyes
Oh Lunarblood your nature shines
How have you danced through desperate times
Do human heartstrings lie within
The moonlit night's monarch
Oh show me are the stories true
Or do they lie to hide from you
A thrill that must awaken
A hunger from the dark
Dim lights
On the evening's breath
From the depths
Rules the mother of the midnight
And like wild she goes
As the city knows
You have the spotlight
A devil's stride
Your cursed birthright
The alpha's pride
Or so the tales write
Where "none survive"
Has your taste partaken night's temptation
Outside
The portrait's frame
Known by a bloodline
But rarely named
Oh when the hunt comes
Do you feel the pain?
Or do you feel exhilaration?
She looks, I stare, can't break away
I face, prepared, my final day
To die, her eyes, provide
Her will before her words
A dance, she says, I swear I hear
A taste of night, implies, I fear
That I, to her, surrendered here
Eclipsed a thousand years
Oh Lunarblood your nature shines
How have you danced through desperate times
Do human heartstrings lie within
The moonlit night's monarch
Oh show me are the stories true
Or do they lie to hide from you
A thrill that must awaken
A hunger from the dark
