“Velvet Wings at Midnight” (succubus)

“Velvet Wings at Midnight” Verse 1 She moves like smoke through candlelight A whisper wrapped in red and black Eyes like promises half-kept Every step, no turning back Silver tongue, a crooked grin Knows the sins you try to hide Calls your name without a sound Pulls you closer, inch by inch Pre-Chorus She don’t chase, she don’t run She just waits till the damage is done Heartbeats drum like a warning bell Too late now, you’re under her spell Chorus Velvet wings at midnight Falling through your dreams She feeds on what you bury deep Desire and doubt and everything between Kiss of fire, touch of frost You feel found before you’re lost Velvet wings at midnight Pray you never wake Verse 2 Perfume laced with ancient lies Moonlight caught inside her stare She don’t need your blood or breath Just the hunger you carry there Mirrors crack when she walks by Truth bends just to let her through Every vow you swore you meant Starts to feel optional with you Pre-Chorus She don’t beg, she don’t plead She just gives you what you need Every “no” turns into “stay” Every night steals a piece of day Chorus Velvet wings at midnight Falling through your dreams She feeds on what you bury deep Desire and doubt and everything between Kiss of fire, touch of frost You feel found before you’re lost Velvet wings at midnight Pray you never wake Bridge Not a monster, not a saint Just a shadow wearing want She reflects what’s in your chest Every fear you never flaunt If you break, it’s not her fault You lit the flame, she brought the dark Signed your name in fading ink One slow heartbeat, one last spark Final Chorus Velvet wings at midnight Hear the silence sing She don’t steal your soul outright She trades in everything Love, regret, the thrill, the cost Every line you never crossed Velvet wings at midnight Close your eyes… and fall
