If I Was Your Vampire

1. 6 a.m. Christmas morning
No shadows
No reflections here
Lying cheek to cheek
In your cold embrace.

So soft and so tragic
As a slaughterhouse
You press the knife
Against your heart
And say
"I love you, so much you must kill me now."

I love you
So much
You must kill me now.

[Chorus 1:]
If I was your vampire
Certain as the moon
Instead of killing time
We'll have each other
Until the sun
If I was your vampire
Death waits for no one
Hold my hands
Across your face
Because I think
Our time has come.

2. Digging your smile apart
With my spade-tounge
The hole is where the heart is
We built this tomb together
And I won't fill it alone
Beyond the pale
Everything is black
No turning back.

[Chorus 1]

3. Blood-stained sheets
In the shape of your heart
This is where it starts
Blood-stained sheets
In the shape of your heart
This is where it starts
This is where it will end
Here comes the moon again.

6:19 and I know I'm ready
Drive me off the mountain.
You'll burn,
I'll eat your ashes.
The impossible wheels seducing
Our corpse.

[Chorus 2:]
If I was your vampire
Certain as the moon
Instead of killing time
We'll have each other
Until the sun
If I was your vampire
Death waits for no one
Hold my hands
Across your face
Because I think
Our time has come.

* Beyond the pale
Everything is black
No turning back.
Beyond the pale
Everything's black
No turning back.

This is where it starts.
This is where it will end.
Here comes the moon again.

This is where it starts.
This is where it will end.
Here comes the moon again.
