The Night

While you sleep so peacefully engulfed in dreams, I wish I could be so easily contented but it was not to be it's too late, for I have entered a world from which I can't break free. There's more to the night than cats and shadows things hidden from light for them it's too hallowed and once you have changed you cannot go back your bloodlust binds you to the night, cruel and black. Your thirst can't be quenched by wine or by water simplicity has ended and now just one thing's sought for you know how to get it and what you must do but you fear your humanity is all that's left to you. But it's too late the rules have changed and only one thing can make you right you've come too far and now it's time to surrender yourself to the night.
