The vampire’s ballad
Symph sat in the forest under the stars he so hated. It was the only time he could be outside without his hat or his cloak on account of his vampirism. He strummed his ukulele sadly.
“ Like a quick flash of lightning, ive become frightening, to the ones i love. Ive become cursed, thanks to the unloving gods above.
They say ‘oh bite me’ i reply 'try me’ see, if i care. I’ll watch them grow older, cat, prince and soldier and ill remain the same. Life isnt easy, love is a gamble and all of its a game. All of its a game.
Blood runs cold, teeth grow pointed, eyes become red, and then there. A monster is born, a creature so horrid, It all just doesnt seem fair. Ill try to push through it, even though it hurts me to live the way I am. Ill smile through the weakness, grin through the hunger, though its all a sham.
They say 'oh bite me’ i reply 'try me’ see, if i care. I’ll watch them grow older, cat, prince and soldier and ill remain the same. Life isnt easy, love is a gamble and all of its a game. All of its a game. ”
He concludes the song, his voice cracking with the last line. Symph rests his head against the tree he sits against. He lets the tears drop sadly down his cheeks as he mourns his own life. Sure its a second chance, but it still hurts.
