If I Was Your Vampire

Six 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 that, "I love you

So much you must kill me now."

I love you

So much you must kill me now

If I was your vampire, certain as the moon

Instead of killing time, we'll have each other till 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

Digging your smile apart with my spade-tongue

And the hole is where the heart is

We built this tomb together; I will fill it alone

(Beyond the pale everything's black, no turning back)

If I was your vampire, certain as the moon

Instead of killing time, we'll have each other till 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

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

Six-nineteen, and I know I'm ready

Drive me off the mountain; you'll burn, and I'll eat your ashes

Impossible wheels seducing our corpse

If I was your vampire, certain as the moon

Instead of killing time, we'll have each other till 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's 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

Here comes the moon again

This is where it starts

This is where it will end

Here comes the moon again

Here comes the moon again

Here comes the moon again

Here comes the moon again
