The Peach Tree - Lift The Black Veil Lyrics: 1. Let Me Tell You A Tale let me tell you a tale, about a boy ever so frail who fell in love with a girl, and into the depths of darkness fell for flaunt his pride did he so much, that he betrayed his lovers trust and she, a queen of darkness being, buried him one fateful evening but tortured was he in dead sleep, his past undoings a prison keep within which his restless soul, pleaded mercy from belfry tolls and so in guise of kindness came, a so called end to all his pain the gods saw fit to let him rise, and from his grave his bones were pried casting off the years of decay, his body now could hold dear sway with any girl who glanced at him, yet still he bore the mark of sin and thus the gods, as punishment, left him with thirst for nourishment that could only be obtained, from warm wet blood in human veins 2. Coming Out Of The Coffin i awoke inside, as beyond the veil i glimpsed a world amidst saguinary hail perception was skewed as death magick was spewed from dead lips behind which fangs protrude and the world is colder now, in awakening my grave is breached, under where you stand my soul still feels it, deep beneath the ground so begins the turning, the waking of the dead is this something real, or just inside my head and the world is darker now in awakening 3. I Let A Demon Inside i let a demon inside, when innocence faded lust turned the simple into complicated and put a cap on my light put a cap on my light, put a cap on my light put a cap on my light, eternal night i let a demon inside, yea when innocence faded turn the simple into complicated and put a cap on my night eternal night 4. I'm Sorry (The Turning) her steely eyes of crystal blue turned fiery red and stared through me i'm sorry that i cheated but the one who's paying most is me all my dreams came crashing down as in the park she blew me memories send shivers down my spine and nightly haunt me deal me out a tarot card beneath the devil's crescent moon reluctant friends call me a cab i'll elmininate my presence soon thoughts are swirlin round my head but in the end it's nonsense true all my feelings ill-invoked, but never will i resent you ... i'm sorry for hurting you are you sorry for turning me? 5. On This Summer's Day on this summer's day... 6. The Day I Let The Darkness In The day I let the Darkness in, 4 simple words, carved in sin (Do you give head?) Was it just my mind, torturing my soul? Or did the devil find, A way to play his role And through me work his will. My blackened heart becoming still The scent of lust upon the air, Turned my dreams into a nightmare. And now with pointed fangs I gaze Through bloody tear filled eyes, ablaze. 7. I Hide My Eyes Away on this summer's day i hide my eyes away from blinding light in full array across the heavens led astray from beneath the ground a hum begins the scream of countless tortured souls that sweep and sway along the rows of weeping trees for hanging sins the graves exhumed, the dead arise waiting 'til the moon belies the creeping tide over blood-soaked sand with fire in eye and sword in hand they sweep across this earthly realm satan steering at the helm where he points they thus shall follow to plague and kill and spread their sorrow but not i, that path to choose for gods and devils always lose the one thing that they claim to own the souls of man before the womb and after death, eternally but speaketh me of blasphemy neither god nor satan holds the key to end this earthly travesty, and neither do they hold with me, any say in my destiny. yet on this beautiful summer's day i still hide the light away with shutters drawn and lips of scorn i cannot bear the coming dawn until the sun lies low i wait with panic-stricken cornered hate and when the twilight settles in i revel in the red moon's sin i stalk the alleys, climb the roofs night has fallen, claws are loosed no hesitation or refrain, pulsing blood through shivering veins the fangs pierce flesh and all is blurred the two have become one, interred 8.

Interview What is the first thing you think of when it comes to vampires? 10. Dreams in my dreams i am a vampire floating through the air slaughter blood and death magick i cast about without a care but when i wake i lick my lips, to see if there are crimson drips and i run my tongue along my teeth but feel no pointed fangs beneath oh the pain of waking, knowing it's not real longing to go back to craving blood and clashing steel but often do i think you're faking, an actor on a stage and all my life is just some story written on a page and how can you tell me that all this is real, when dreams are more real than real life feels i am an existentialistwith vampiric tendancies a dangerous combination for a mind in troubled seas oh rescue me from the abyss, yet let me drop into my bliss i don't know if i'm dark or light yet i know i'll make it through the night to dream again of floating away 11. From Edward Cullen To Twilight Girl slow dance with me and i'll show you all you need we can find a place to feed twilight girl when dusk has come and the birds all have sung we can have a little fun twilight girl you want romance well then give me a chance i'm not trying to get into your pants twilight girl, there's something else i want i want something else, twilight girl... i want to drink your blood 12. Existential how do you know you're not already dead and what if the whole wide world's inside your head how can i guide you when you're already lost in the fog i want to take you to the other side where all the hills are grey beneath white skies but how can i take you when you're already drained dry in my dreams i keep forgeting that the world is always turning, even while i'm asleep 13. Lift The Black Veil modern day vampire what do you know do you think that you're immortal no pointed fangs, no super strength only weakness, thirst and anger psychic energy flows through our blood drink it in or roll with the flood you have a choice, either prey on the weak or ignore temptation and anxiety peaks i know you feel your soul is ancient but we're all human, so please be patient the blood you crave, the thirst for life it's all around you, you don't need a donor obsessive compulsive thirst for life a balancing act on the edge of a knife just let it go, just let it go you're not a vampire, you're just yourself i believe that you can harness energy but that doesn't make you special we all can do it, but do you really need it or is it just a desire those dreams of yours, where fangs pierce flesh are sexual urges misconstrued take control of the inner thirst, and use it to love.
