I’ve been asleep for a thousand years
There’s no reprieve – it’s quite severe
I’m stricken with a sickness that I cannot shake
The devil as my witness, my heart might break

You see I’ve lost my true love to the night
Yet her radiance burns in my eyes
Oh How I long for the touch that warms my skin
Now a faint memory that drives my sins

This price I pay for eternity
The light of day would be the end of me
My condition is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery
Inside of an enigma – fresh blood is the key

If you’re looking for comfort – look away
Endless tears have drained my sympathy
I’m the chill when the wind blows – I’m decay
I’m Unholy – infernal – the name you shall not say

Now I will rise from my earthly confines
Never has my thirst been so strong
I move through the shadows and hunt like a wolf
I swallow your scent as I run

The feeling is electric – it’s pure ecstasy
Extraordinary power coming over me
Notify the elders and lock up the young
When darkness falls I will come!

When darkness falls – that’s when I will rise
When darkness falls – I will drink because blood is the life

As hard as I try there’s no end to this story
Words keep on finding the page
The contract was signed I can’t leave purgatory
Lucifer won’t give me away

I won’t claim this misery exclusively
So join me for eternity won’t you please?
My reign of terror has only begun
When darkness falls I will come!

When darkness falls – that’s when I will rise
When darkness falls – I will drink because blood is the life
When darkness falls – that’s when I will rise
When darkness falls – Only blood of the young satisfys

Take from me, steal from me, might imprisons me for eternity
Now you’ll bleed – feel a trance coming over you
Soon you’ll witness my point of view
Like a candle that’s fed the flame – we’ll share the pain
Clouds are forming, a soft light glowing
Dawn breaks through
Such a sight to behold that my eyes cannot see

And now moving swiftly I must return to my tomb
Or I’ll surely burn – my true love is the night
Goodnight – sleep gives me solace, I must confess
So now I’ll rest but when darkness falls I will rise

Blood is the life, I am eternal
Blood is the life, I am eternal
Blood is the life, I am eternal
Blood is the life, I am eternal
