Removal of the Oaken Stake |
| Encased in shadows |
| So silently I’ve slept |
| Dreaming of the day |
| My needs haphazardly are met |
| I recall an ancient time |
| When I did rule this land |
| But by this godforsaken spell |
| The life I’d known was stripped right from these hands |
| In death I’m bound |
| Nailed to the ground |
| Stabbed through the heart |
| The only tender human part |
| Removal from my breast |
| The killing oaken stake |
| When this curse is broken |
| And these yellowed bones regenerate again |
| When this coffin steams so foul |
| Glowing with crimson light |
| Inhuman sweat shall stain the silk |
| As death returns to life |
| No, no pity tor the fool |
| Its fangs to he who stirs my slumber |
| Quenching an olden thirst |
| To rise once again unencumbered |
| I’ll live again |
| An incubus in human skin |
| Buried by time and dust |
| A most harrowed secret kept |
| Older than memory |
| Through history I’ve crept |
| Hidden the ancient world |
| Where vampires ruled the lands |
| But by man’s dreadful mortal schemes |
| They’ve captured us in purgatory’s dance |
| In death I’m bound |
| Nailed to the ground |
| Stabbed through the heart |
| The only tender human part |
| In death I’m bound |
| Nailed to the ground |
| Right through the heart |
| What you’d call lore, it’s very real to me |
| Removal from my breast |
| The killing oaken stake |
| When this curse is broken |
| And these yellowed bones regenerate again |
| When this coffin steams so foul |
| Glowing with crimson light |
| Inhuman sweat shall stain the silk |
| As death returns to life |
