LE CANZONI DEL VAMPIRO LESTAT

 

Age Of Innocence

This is the Age of Innocence
True Innocence.
All your Demons are visible.
All your Demons are material

Call them Pain
Call them Hunger
Call them War

Mythic evil you don't need anymore.

Remember:
The Man with the fangs wears a cloak.
What passes for charm
Is a charm.

Understand what you see
When you see me!

Kill us, my brothers and sisters
The war is on

Understand what you see
When you see me.

I am the Vampire Lestat

I am the Vampire Lestat!
Come on, let me hear you! You love me!
How many of you would be vampires?

I am the Vampire Lestat!
You are here for the Grand Sabbat
But I pity you your lot

You can't resist the lords of night
They have no mercy on your plight
In your fear they take delight
Yet in love, we will take you
And in rapture, we'll break you
And in death we'll release you
No on can say
You were not warned.

I am telling you I am a Vampire!
I am Evil! Evil!
Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES, YES, YES, YES.
I want to drink up your souls!

Children of Darkness
Meet the Children of Light
Children of Man
Fight the Children of Night.

***

Come Together

Mother and Father.
Keep your silence,
Keep your secrets,
But those of you with tongues,
sing my song.

Sons and daughters
Children of darkness
Raise your voices
Make a chorus
Let heaven hear us

Come together,
Brother and sisters,
Come to me.

My Beautiful Marquise

In my dreams, I hold her still,
Angel, lover, Mother.
And in my dreams, I kiss her lips,
Mistress, Muse, Daughter.

She gave me life
I gave her death
My beautiful Marquise.

And on the Devil's Road we walked
Two orphans then toghether.

And does she hear my hymns tonight
of Kings and Queens and Ancient truths?
Of broken vows and sorrow?

Or does she climb some distant path
where rhyme and song can't find her?

Come back to me, my Gabrielle
My Beautiful Marquise.
The castle's ruined on the hill
The village lost beneath the snow
But you are mine forever.
