3. Tainted Blood (4:17)
We danced among the mortals
Blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty
Fills the midnight air
I offer first taste
To my love as is always
Tainted blood
She cries and dies
My whole world falls away
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
Throughout the many years
Our lives were oh-so sweet
But this tainted blood has taken
Everything from me
No place for me within this world
The dance is done
No reason to remain
You were the only one
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
There's nothing
Nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty
Fills the midnight air
I offer first taste
To my love as is always
Tainted blood
She cries and dies
My whole world falls away
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
Throughout the many years
Our lives were oh-so sweet
But this tainted blood has taken
Everything from me
No place for me within this world
The dance is done
No reason to remain
You were the only one
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes
To end this endless night
Without her
There's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her
Eternity is misery
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
There's nothing
Nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
Make the sign of the cross
Wrap me into the chains
Put a stake through my heart
Throw me out in the light
