"A Vampire's Lament" lyrics

"A Vampire's Lament"

I am the walking dead heartbreaker, my apologies
I'm happy you'll never understand, what it's like to be
Trapped under six feet of, solid glass
I can see out, but no one gets in

Screaming at this prison, I've locked myself into
I'm sorry that I'm still breathing, and that I'll kill again
But the loneliness is too much, for me to handle
But the taste for fresh blood, pushes me on

I told myself the constant pain would ease the tension burning inside
But the nights were cold and the days dragged to weeks
I will die, here alone, I will die

The fear of romance
The pain of living
The joy of sorrow
The strength of not forgiving

The fear of romance
The pain of living
The joy of sorrow
The strength of not forgiving

God help me, I'm so tired
But in my dreams the wolves eat out my soul
God help me, I'm so frightened
But in my dreams wolves tear out my heart

I used to be golden, a saint in a time of sorrow
But then the turning came, and I kissed the sun goodbye
Don't you get it, it's always darker in my eyes
The screams of my brothers egging me on
