Malkav's Words
In the singing, shattered midnight,
By the coral sands of time,
Through the bloody gates of heaven,
Past the sentries in my mind.
Bring about the change so quickly,
Bring about the terror's night,
Bring about the blood of lovers,
Bring about the smell of fright.
I see you watching where I walk,
Through the moonlit jasmine field.
Listen closely as I talk,
About the stars and their lovers past.
Past fields of poppies, burning bright,
Into towers of Blackend Bone
Follow me, Bastard of Caine,
Come with me. I have no home.
As I drain you life's blood sweetly,
As you sigh into my warm hands.
As I suck your madness neatly,
Streaming down like crimson bands.
I dance the dance of the fool
And pray you find me mad.
For if you lay hands upon the root
You'll know me, without illusion
And find me guilty of the truth.
