The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Needles of pain prick my brain

I shriek and cry in vain

For no one hears the song of my heart

No one cares... they are sane



I wish and wish, there was

something I could do, or

someone I could tempt,

a reason to hurt no more



But all I see, as I look in the glass

is my tears, oh my tears,

best friends and companions,

eternally mocking my fears



I embrace this hated face,

how can seeming and being be

so different - I ask, don`t know

I hate both; outside and inside me



Crawling over jagged glass,

unheeding of the blood trailing behind,

I sigh and whisper I know not what,

asking for death to make me blind

Your screaming face

is all that I can see

as I beg every shadow

to jump at me



Hurt me, flay me,

beat me, blood me

only let me feel

that I`m alive



Whips of fury,

tear at my soul,

hating everyone

alone I scowl



This fucken` barrier

made of steely glass

will never break,

not even from this side



I hate eveyone,

always did, always will

not yet the time to

shriek or to kill



Just hold me tightly,

so hard I can`t breathe,

destroy me and let us

dissolve in the night

Toxic blood

Pumps and sings in my lacerated veins

Tears and shuddering – in vain

Didn`t I tell you?

Relying on others is useless

Just jump

And be done with it

Leaving everything behind



Not even diseased death

Will have my maggoty heart

Frozen into indifference

Encased in muted longing

Vermilion shadows

Run along my spine

Trying to wake me up;

As soon resurrect society



Decomposed

Too late to start to live

When you`re already dead



Victims: aren`t we all?

I love that skin

Oh so white

Marred by blue veins

Calling

Calling



The temptation is so strong

Just a tiny flick

A shiny blade

Do it

Do it



Colourless bath-water becoming

a beautiful crimson

as life falls away

Drop by drop

Drop by drop



Black hair tangles around

pale fingers so lifeless

as I smile and sigh

Come for me

Come for me

The darkness beckons

I try not to hear;

Impossible



Voices shriek from within,

a cacophony,

tearing at my bowels



It is hard to forget

what changed me

into this wreck



Furrows through my cheeks

cut by bloody tears

forbid me the culling of my despair



Like loving acid on sizzling meat

tiny points of terror prick

at the edge of my vision



Falling into you is the only way

of dispersing this unsolved life,

if only I could find you that is
