[Intro — Church bells, thunder, whispered male vocals]
When the last light dies…
Lock your doors.
Say your prayers.
The night belongs to me.
[Verse 1 — Deep male vocals, gothic piano]
Black velvet draped across the throne,
A thousand years I’ve walked alone.
The roses wilt beneath my hand,
I am the curse upon this land.
Your heartbeat echoes through the hall,
One whispered word, and shadows crawl.
You see a man in tailored black,
But you’ll never come back.
[Pre-Chorus — Rising strings, building drums]
The silver moon illuminates your skin,
You know the danger, yet let me in.
One final breath, one last goodbye,
Discover what it means to never die.
[Chorus — Explosive gothic rock, soaring vocals]
Crimson bite beneath the moon,
I’ll claim your heart before night’s through.
Feel the darkness calling your name,
One taste of blood, nothing stays the same.
I am the hunger, I am the night,
An ancient shadow devouring the light.
No heaven can save you, no dawn shines through—
Your eternity begins with a crimson bite from me to you!
[Verse 2 — Dark vocals, pulsing bass, sinister choir]
Portraits watch from walls of stone,
Lovers lost to years unknown.
I wear my centuries like a crown,
While kingdoms rise and crumble down.
You call me evil, call me damned,
Yet still you reach for my outstretched hand.
[Pre-Chorus — Orchestral tension]
The clock strikes twelve, the candles sway,
There’s no salvation before the day.
Your beating heart is all I hear,
And every second draws you near.
[Chorus — Full gothic rock]
Crimson bite beneath the moon,
I’ll claim your heart before night’s through.
Feel the darkness calling your name,
One taste of blood, nothing stays the same.
I am the hunger, I am the night,
An ancient shadow devouring the light.
No heaven can save you, no dawn shines through—
Your eternity begins with a crimson bite from me to you!
[Bridge — Intimate vocals, heartbeat percussion]
I’ve watched the oceans turn to dust,
Seen empires crumble into rust.
I’ve held eternity in my hands,
Yet never learned to understand.
Every soul I draw near
Becomes a ghost I fear.
But you still stand before my throne,
And for the first time, I’m not alone.
[Breakdown — Monstrous growl, erupting choir]
THE SUN WILL RISE!
THE BELLS WILL TOLL!
YOU CAN NEVER TAKE BACK YOUR SOUL!
I AM THE NIGHT!
I AM THE END!
YOUR IMMORTAL NIGHTMARE—
YOUR DARKEST FRIEND!
[Final Chorus — Massive drums, soaring vocals]
Crimson bite beneath the blood-red moon,
Let the heavens shatter, let the stars consume.
Feel the darkness burning inside,
There’s nowhere left for you to hide.
I am the hunger, I am the night,
An ancient shadow devouring the light.
No heaven can save you, no dawn shines through—
Your eternity begins with a crimson bite from me to you!
Crimson! Crimson!
Hear the midnight cry!
One bite! One kiss!
We’re born never to die!
[Outro — Solo piano, fading bells]
The candles are dying…
The roses are black…
You gave me your heart.
There is no giving it back.
