Ash & Elm - Vlad lyrics

Listen close and you will see This life of pain and misery Just as was foretold My heart has grown cold My sins have condemned me - my story untold My kingdom-the throne All came to be known for those who denied Count thousands - they died Those not who hailed Or those who failed - all met their fate They all were impaled This blood that I draw This blood that I dine - In the eyes of this world The failure is mine My Corpse it decays But my soul - it stays and wanders the world Still I remain The virgins I raped Their flesh that I ate Their corpses I kept - I laughed when they wept I tore out their hearts Consumed all their parts And bathed in their blood Then stuck them in mud The Holy Decree Came down unto me They stripped me of my royalty My throne twas gone Now I am a pawn Trapped in this tower And dreading dawn This blood that I draw This blood that I dine - In the eyes of this world The failure is mine My Corpse it decays But my soul - it stays and wanders the world Still I remain Repeat
