Story Behind the Song
Setting fear aside, we must embrace risks to acheive our desires. Even when you know your demise is certain.
Lyrics
Rooftops endless quilt the view
As the night thins to my cries of hate
I have dined on virgin wine
And wiped the filth away
Unashamed, unforgiving
This unstill life, not worth living
Only one kiss, I have missed
I exist submerged in black
Drunken on my own sorrow
My light, never to come back
If you could just warm me once
Shine on, shine on me
I know you cannot cure me
The remedy that will infect me
Still I need you
Oh how I need you
How I need you wrapped around me
A single fatal, mortal touch
My pact is sealed
Signed in blood
I wait for dawn to come
If I must sacrifice all I am
Forgo my immortality
I offer myself to you
Release me of this misery
Searing flesh, bloodstained sight
Cleansed, penance paid tonight
Ashes to ashes reduced to dust
The miserable wretch I have become
I know you cannot cure me
The remedy that will infect me
Still I need you
Oh how I need you
How I need you wrapped around me
A single fatal, mortal touch
My pact is sealed
Signed in blood
I wait for dawn to come
One glimpse, one touch
One heart to crush
Newborn, to die
To live, demise
I know you cannot cure me
The remedy that will infect me
Still I need you
Oh how I need you
How I need you wrapped around me
A single fatal, mortal touch
My pact is sealed
Signed in blood
I wait for dawn to come
I wait for dawn to come
I wait for dawn to come
