The Vampyre - He Is Legend

To burn the day again

When darkness shows no end

Smile at the saddest times

Weep for a happy life

Eyes fixed on heavens high

I tumble into holes

I follow suit in dreams

Voice of the wind and streams

Wise men have none like mine

I am the fools delight

I beg by the moonlight

The voice never consoles

I wake with mind aflame

My joy and sorrow same

The gray fell all around

A sickness so profound

I’ve earned this endless night

I’ve earned this bed of coals

The world’s come to a head

The sun and moon are dead

Nothing more here to see

The light gives up

Now it’s leaving me

I’ve made myself a thief

Lived beyond belief

If god’s just a jawbone

We’re just his crooked, rotten teeth

I’ll wear these mortal coils

Like snakes around my ankles

I’ll be thankful

I deserve no less

Spend my last days under duress

Eyes fixed on heavens high

I tumble into holes

I’ll wear these mortal coils

Like snakes around my ankles

I’ll be thankful

I deserve no less

Spend my last days under duress

Eyes fixed on heavens high

I tumble into holes

Spend my last days

Spend my last days under duress
