While stopping by a cafe'
for a spot of tea
along came some old dear friends
welcome company
we made our lives seem better
than they really were
it only seemed natural
bragging would occur
one by one they went their way
I was left alone
except for one pale angel
her name was unknown
"You think your friends believed you?"
asked with a smile
I shrugged and beckoned to her
last try at guile?
As she came to sit by me
my voice did lose strength
the palest eyes and white skin
then she spoke at length
"You talk about a lifetime
that has brought you fame
But I can give you something
to put all of that to shame."
Drawing back her lips to show
a fang filled evil grin
she leaned to me and whispered
"Give me one night's sin"
I rose and excused myself
she looked a bit sad
she must have thought I'd gamble
oh no, not this lad
She never tried to stop me
I went on my way
hoped that I would be lucky
see the light of day
So close immortality
lost my only chance
I ran straight home so frightened
God, I pissed my pants!
