Darkened dreams,she asked for even more
Oceans fill the boughs of resident dreams alike
Her silence was all the vampire King wanted tonight
Whilst shall he ask her to stay? she just might
Then came the dance of the waning moon
Each guitar string told the lies of her fated talon doom
He was soon obsessed to marry her to
But in his custom as cemetery vows came through blood so true
She waits each night to be his vampire bride
She sleeps out the days while he in his family crypt close by
He waits on the pebbled paths to the beach, her lost soul
Her hand reaches , his kisses ignited her flames, sensual, each heighten sigh
On hallow eve she will bathe in blood wine
To be his Black Rose , she is devils divine
Last the ring with Ruby will be placed, on her finger so fine
Then she will join the family crypt each shard glass etched , that says all mine!
He will dress her in velvet lace with blue roses , by her lovely porcelain face
Each one will fill her bodice, her laced sleeves
The cloak will hand with black lace and roses that weave
It will be the crowing of the next Vampire Queen of the Blood Moon sea
