Liner Notes

#gothic #vampirelovesong
Not a hard one to explain this - I came up with a chord progression, thought 'That sounds a bit gothic', then started singing some lyrics about 'I give my blackened heart to you', thought it sounded like a love song a vampire might sing, and then the rest of the song pretty much wrote itself..

Lyrics

I've slept a 1000 years
Inside my own prison made of stone
But now, as I rise, I find
There's a space beside my throne

Each I night, i roam this land
For I've a kingdom to subdue
But still, despite the years, I yearn
To give my blackened heart to you

For though, I want for nought
And I, am the master of this land
But still, I find I long
TO feel your pulse beneath my hand

And so, I come to you
By sea, in a box that's filled with dirt
And i think of you each time
That I cause more pain and hurt

And now my ship draws near
I long to see your sweet face again
For eternity is long
But I could bear it with a friend
