Tainted Blood

Lyrics

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 fades away
 No one to wipe my bloody tears
 The life we had for two hundred 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 mе into the chains)
 Do whatever it takеs 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 two hundred 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
 ♪

 (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
