YRN VLAD III- Sangs and Drakes
(Verse 1) You talk about a stake like it’s some holy ending Drive it through the chest, it’s just a wound that’s mending It’s gonna hurt, yeah, I’ll feel the metal bite But I’ll pull it out and keep moving through the night. And that garlic? Put a wreath around my neck It never burns, it’s just a scent, a social check. The sunlight’s different, let’s get the facts straight It doesn’t turn me into ash or seal my fate It just locks the hunger, puts a wall in my veins Prevents the drinking, leave me starving in the plains. While you’re sleeping, I’m awake for seven days straight No rest for the Sanguine, we don’t negotiate with fate. (Chorus) We see the truth when we look in the glass Vampire shadows while the centuries pass. We love the gold, we love the silver shine Mixing the drugs with the blood like it’s wine. Seven days awake, never need a rest Superpower hunger, put the world to the test. (Verse 2) The Sanguine play with magic, rituals in the dark Mixing chemicals and plasma, waiting for the spark. We take the blood and we lace it with the high Watch the visions crawl across the midnight sky. And you heard we can’t see ourselves? That’s a lie too We hate the view of our bodies, but the reflection’s true. We stare at the mirror, see the hunger in the eyes Recognize the monster under the human disguise. Give me the silver, give me the gold to hold We crave the precious metals, ancient and cold. We’re the ones who communicate with the birds and the trees Talking to the mushrooms, floating on the breeze. The mycelium network, the cap and the stem We hear the plants whispering, we’re kin to them. (Verse 3) Superpowers flowing every time we take a sip Strength in the jaw, power in the grip. But the ferals? They’ve lost the mind, lost the soul They’re eating the flesh, they’ve lost all control. We’re the elite, the ones who play the long game While the world stays soft, we stay the same. Walking through the city, lying to the girls Promises of love, we offer them the pearls. But we’re cheating on the test, playing with their heart Breaking every bond, tearing lives apart. From Anderson Creek to the edge of the world The banners of the Sanguine are finally unfurled. Seven days, no sleep, watching the shadows dance Connected to the earth, in a blood-magic trance. (Outro) (Music fades into an eerie ambient hum) The birds are talking. The mushrooms are listening. We see you in the mirror. We don’t need to sleep... Not today. Not ever. (Silence)
