Elegant Vampires Lyrics by Pattern-Seeking Animals

Prehensile Tales

2020

You can black out every window
You can padlock all the doors
You might think that I'm mistaken
But the choice will not be yours
Charming snakes with soothing voices
Will disarm you to the core
They will sense your every weakness
It's the chance they're waiting for
These strangers come and go
Dressed all in dead men's clothes
They'll steal your broken heart but slowly
This night the moon won't glow
Like blood the darkness flows
The end is near but you don't know it
No reflection in the mirror
Nor a footprint in the dust
Every soul a walking shadow
That your heart should never trust
Resurrected men now monsters
From medieval tomes appear
Seeking out memento mori
As they wander through the years
These strangers come and go
Dressed all in dead men's clothes
They'll steal your broken heart but slowly
This night the moon won't glow
Like blood the darkness flows
The end is near but you don't know it
Ten grains of sand slip through the hourglass
Cold hands caress your mortal soul
Still you feel warm like you are loved at last
But your lot's been cast
A nightmare born of faith beyond control
So you say you don't believe me
But the truth is that I know
There's a land beyond forgiveness
Where the chosen victims go
Huddled souls in windy hollows
Wander headlong through the haze
Some will lead, the rest will follow
All are lost within the maze
These strangers come and go
Dressed all in dead men's clothes
They'll steal your broken heart but slowly
This night the moon won't glow
Like blood the darkness flows
The end is near but you don't know it
