Dark, dark folk, string quartet, vampirwalzer, edel, verführerisch, medieval choir singing, male voice, sung poetry

[INTRO]
In ancient graves, a whisper sighs,
Hands clasped in prayer 'neath ashen skies.
Where darkness crawls and spirits yearn,
The curse begins—its silence burns.

[VERSE 1]
A priest am I, on sacred quest,
To banish evil, grant it rest.
Through shadowed halls, my faith remains,
By candlelight, the soul complains.

[BRIDGE]
A murmur stirs in deepest stone,
A seal now breaks—I’m not alone.
The candle flickers, darkness sways,
What once lay still now walks the haze.

[Whispered]
Stillness falls on ancient shrine,
One breath alone—and it claims mine.

[CHORUS]
I died that night—my heart grew still,
My lifeless form lay cold and chill.
The shadows spoke, and blood took flight,
Born I was—child of the night.

Blood, oh blood, I taste your fire,
Blood-red moon, you chose desire.
I scent the pulse—I pull away,
She kneels before… I shall not stay.

[VERSE 2]
I fell to her, the weakened soul,
My faith dissolved, no more control.
The dark slipped in, a gentle thief—
And shaped in me a new belief.

[VERSE 3]
My senses keen like never before,
A whisper roars, a thundering lore.
The pulse of life—a vibrant scream,
In every drop, a fevered dream.

Yet something weeps inside my chest,
A spark of light, in guilt confessed.
I search in vain, my path unsure,
Lost in the night, my thirst the lure.

[CHORUS 2]
Transformed was I—no heart remains,
Reborn anew in cursed chains.
The thirst ignites with cruel delight,
No time shall quell this endless night.

I see your heart—it softly glows,
A fragile flame the darkness knows.
I reach for it—but don't abstain,
For all I love must bear my name.

[OUTRO]
No turning back—the path is sealed,
In shadow I was born, revealed.
What once was man has turned to shade,
A new name carved, the old betrayed.

I am the hunger, night and flame,
Born in the dark, without a name.
The world may run—I linger near,
A kiss, a vow, a longing—dear.

[Whispered]
Now sing my song, in blood it's scribed—
I am the night. In me… all time.

[Fin]
