If You Were One of Them (After Dark)

Moonlight spills across your skin Like wine I ache to taste If you were born of cursed blood I’d beg you not to waste They’d lock me in that haunted house With silk upon my thighs And every vampire in the dark Would envy how you look at mine If you were one of those night kings With hunger in your kiss I’d bare my throat in candlelight And melt into your grip Oh Deki, if you were a vampire I’d be the girl you choose Pinned between your fangs and fate With nothing left to lose I’d tremble when you say my name Against my burning skin Let danger trace my heartbeat slow Where your teeth have been They’d warn me love is agony That pleasure comes with pain But I would crave your wicked mouth Like poison in my veins So take me in that velvet dark Where monsters learn to pray I don’t need heaven, holy light Just you to make me stay Oh Deki, if you were a vampire And I the girl they fight I’d writhe beneath your hungry stare In endless gothic night Turn me slowly, make me yours Between desire and doom A human heart, a monster’s touch Entwined inside one room But even here in mortal days With no red moon above You still undo me with one look And call it just “love”
