Lyrics
**Intro**
*(Snare drumline, Cymbals crash, Heavy electric guitar)*
**Verse 1**
In the midnight fog, where shadows creep,
I walked the earth while the mortals sleep.
A fateful night, the moon's cold glow,
Turned my soul to a darkened woe.
**Pre-Chorus**
Through the ages, I’ve seen it all,
Kings and queens rise, and kingdoms fall.
Battles rage and blood is spilled,
Humanity’s curse, their hearts are filled.
**Chorus**
I’m the vampire in the dark,
Eternal hunger leaves its mark.
Once I mourned the wars they fought,
Now I feast, and feel no thought.
**Guitar Solo 1**
*(High-pitched wails and cascading notes, reflecting the agony of ancient battles and timeless suffering.)*
**Verse 2**
Centuries pass, and I still remain,
Witness to the cycle of endless pain.
From castles grand to the common streets,
I’ve seen their triumphs, and their defeats.
**Pre-Chorus**
Empires rise and kingdoms shatter,
In their wake, what does it matter?
A darkened heart no longer swayed,
By the wars their gods have made.
**Chorus**
I’m the vampire in the dark,
Eternal hunger leaves its mark.
Once I mourned the wars they fought,
Now I feast, and feel no thought.
**Guitar Solo 2**
*(Powerful riffs and melodic bends, capturing the essence of ancient sorrow and the numbness of eternal existence.)*
**Bridge**
Golden crowns and silken threads,
All fall silent, all are dead.
No remorse for blood I take,
For the world is cold and fake.
**Guitar Solo 3**
*(Emotional and intense, illustrating the internal struggle between once-held empathy and the acceptance of a cold, unfeeling existence.)*
**Verse 3**
In the end, the mortals fight,
While I watch from endless night.
No more tears for the blood I spill,
Their fate’s sealed by my own will.
**Pre-Chorus**
The throne’s empty, the battle’s won,
But the hunger in me is never done.
Lost in time, my heart is cold,
In the tales of war, I am bold.
**Chorus**
I’m the vampire in the dark,
Eternal hunger leaves its mark.
Once I mourned the wars they fought,
Now I feast, and feel no thought.
**Guitar Solo 4**
*(Final solo, a culmination of all previous themes, explosive and haunting, symbolizing the vampire's final acceptance of their eternal nature.)*
**Outro**
In the midnight fog, where shadows creep,
I walk alone while the mortals sleep.
A thirst unquenched, a soul so deep,
Eternal watcher, my vow to keep.
*(Drums fade out with the final echoes of guitar, leaving a haunting silence.)*
