”A word of caution in your ear
because I'd hate you to fall my dear
but let me warn you,
there are sharks out there
so beware!
They're preying on innocence and naivete
their faces you cannot see.
Their hearts are blackened
Dead souls, dark as night
Seeking the pure of heart
They hold no barriers
no rules do they follow
they have no care for tomorrow
for a thousand thousand they've already lived
so what is another that they cannot give
Their only desire is to destroy
You are othing more than a toy
So be aware, that all is not as it seems
Do not be led astray
For it will be your death today
Listen to the voice of instinct
let it be your guide
Listen to a voice of reason or a friendly word spoken
For danger your instincts are buried, never to be woken
Do not listen to false and stupid pride
Considering it only you they wish to know
Because believe me my friend, behind you?
There are many others in tow
These ones are vampires of souls
Seeking only the game
The lust for power and flight
They would take you just like any other
to downfall and eternal darkest night
They care nought for who you are
For friendship, love or wealth
Their only goal is death and destruction
Their weapons, mystery and quiet stealth
They creep up on the unwary
Or those who think only good
Take them prisoner with their wily words of grace
Slowly entrapping you in snares of silk and lace
They lure you to believe the future is rosy
Their homes seemingly beautiful,
Filled with warmth, welcoming and cosy
Yet when the moon shines at her fullness
Then you will see them in their unholiness
Only at the end of moon's phase
Will you see them for what they truly are
Then you'll see their disgusting ways
Blackened cavernous eyes, sunken cheeks
Blackened hearts, hair hung down in matted filthy streaks
Their homes a parody of what you saw
Filth and grime, infested from ceiling to floor
Walls slicked with blood of innocent souls
Thousands upon thousands, never to return
Tricked to walk through that door,
Look around you, their faces surround you now
No love within them is there to be found
As they gather in for the kill
You're lost, trapped within their grounds
There is no escape now for you
Because you wouldn't listen when I spoke to you
You're doomed to live their life
A thousand lifetimes filled with pain
No more to feel the sunshine or rain
No more to feel the power of love
Or a gentle touch upon your face
All is now only lust and ravenous hunger
A gnawing of the soul
Because you listened to their alluring voice
There is nothing left of you
You didn't listen to my warning
You thought you would be safe
Well now you have learned your lesson
For you it is now too late!
You are condemned for eternity
To live a half life in obscurity
Gnawing hunger lies in your eye
You already know it will never die
the craving rules your waking thoughts
You will never be free
Because you refused to listen to me
So now my friend, I must leave you
Because I choose not your fate
So I shall leave you to the destruction
Whilst I firmly close the gate!"
