Old wounds echo in the fading light Memories held, wrapped in darkest night She walks the lines, drawn by someone else's hand A beautiful prisoner in a haunted land Torn and tattered, a faded photograph She learned to be quiet, to not make a path But the vampire in her heart is waking up Thirsting for life, she's had enough Of whispers and chains, of being told her place She's building her kingdom with fierce grace Some days the shadows feel a little too deep Some days she wonders how she'll ever sleep Then a hand reaches out, a whisper from a friend Telling her she's brave, until the very end Cause the vampire in her heart is waking up Thirsting for life, she's had enough Of whispers and chains, of being told her place She's building her kingdom with fierce grace She carries the scars, a map of all her wars Reminders of how she broke through locked doors No longer a pawn, just a queen on the board She's the woman she wants to be, no longer ignored A soul destined to be, a truth she's fighting for That mystical power, waiting at her core
