After All This Time
What taste is this upon my lips
A taste so sweet, what can that be
What is this scent upon the air
That fills my lungs and comforts me
And whispers low, how does it feel
To savor all such just revenge
To smell the fragrancy of loss
And drunkenly inhale his pain
How can it be your countenance
Is stripped of all his dash and dare
And what of your bold confidence
Could it have drowned in your despair
chorus
And after all this time
I wash my hands of your charade
And celebrate your fall from grace
Preserve that sad look on your face
And praise what God might manifest
Himself to beings such as us
For vengeance that at last is mine
Comes sweetly after all this time
If you'll allow me to recall
How my requests were swept aside
In every instance I beseeched you
I was shut out and denied
You shattered what I once believed
From the moment you arrived
And now you wonder why I gloat here
Revelling in your grand demise
You're arrogant beyond contempt
You beg to share my precious blood
I no sooner you in my veins
Than to see you with the ones you love
Embrace It
Where is the glory in the new me
Where is the feeling of achievement
In the shadows of the evening
Where is the satisfaction in your killing creed
Who am I now, I don't know
I must question my existence
And deal with your persistence
That somehow in some way you set me free
And I don't think that I can take another night of these instincts that I fight
This overwhelming dread of feeling damned inside
Oh God help us, just look at you
You're shrinking away from my point of view
Showering me with your pious plane
The gift that I give is exempt from shame
chorus
Embrace it, embrace it
Make no mistake, these dismal traits
Are temporary ties to everlasting life
Embrace it, embrace it
You seek my trust after the lies
But in this superficial splendor
The decades will seem endless
Or will the drudgery of torment be my bride
What lies are these of what you speak
Are you so blinded by contrition
That you sense in me ambitions
And a failure to practice what I preach
And I don't think I can take another night of your countenance in sight
The wilted flower act who shuns the vampire's bite
Oh God belp me, just look at you
Striding through Hell with nothing to prove
A glorious ghost on infinity's fuse
Then if it's to be, tell me what I should do
Make Me As You Are
I cannot hide what I've become
It's clear a mother knows her son
And even though your sight grows dim
You see the pallor of my skin
The blood red eyes sunk in my face
You feel the chill in my embrace
The Gothic legend of your youth
Stands here tonight as God's own truth
And from that truth I feel no fear
Two kinds of death are present here
Mine's the age-old act of dying
But yours is like the Phoenix rising
Your mother's frail and feeble husk
Will soon be nothing more than dust
So let's not dwell on wasted years
My time is short, my choice is clear
Make Me As You Are
Tear the hands off clocks
That tick away my final hours
I want to rage against the light
And leave the sun behind
I want to feel the path of everlasting youth inside
Take me, give me new life
And we'll live beneath the stars
Together and forever
I beg you, Make Me As You Are
This cursed gift with which I live
I know not if it's mine to give
But out of love I can't refuse
Too much to gain; nothing to lose
The risk is mine, and if we fail
I'll shake the demons by their tails
And spit into the devil's face
And say hell's now was damn, this place
I'm still a fledgling in this frame
I've only killed when hunger reigned
Death was final in my wake
But yes this is the chance we'll take
Oh blessed thoughts of sweet release
From nagging nurse, and hovering priest
To rid myself of stoop and cane
To breathe without this burning pain
Make Me As You Are
Tear the wings off angels that would lift me from your heart
I want to dance beneath the moon
And slip into the dark
I want to feel the night awaken when I leave my mark
Take me, give me new life
And we'll live beneath the stars
Together and forever, I beg you
Make Me, Make Me, Make Me As You Are
Tear the hands off clocks that tick away my final hours
I want to rage against the light
And leave the sun behind
I want to feel the path of everlasting youth inside
Take me, give me new life
And we'll live beneath the stars
Together and forever
I beg you, Make Me As You Are
Sail Me Away
When stars are born, are they cast out
To wander cold and lonely lost in space?
A loveless point of light that can't return
Forever fixed within one place
When love is lost and dreams
