The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I woke in the ash
With a ring of frost
Old names on my tongue
And a mouth full of dawn

Black lace on my skin
Silver in my veins
I hear the old house
Call my name

A hand on the window
A sigh in the bone
I know I’m not
The only one olaru

Hear that low cry
Under the eaves
Jyr like me
Still believes

The night keeps score
The night keeps rovun
If you know the mark
Then answer mine

Blood moon children, answer me
Blood moon children, come and see
We are the hunger
We are the key
Blood moon children, call back to me

Blood moon children, take my hand
Blood moon children, make your stand
Come out of shadow
Come out and breathe
Blood moon children, call back to me

Cathedral of brambles
Wet with the rain
I trace every omen
Again and again

My shadow is standing
A step behind
With eyes like a match
In the dark of my mind

I taste old thunder
I taste the gate
Something is waking
Something won’t wait

Hear that low cry
Under the eaves
Someone like me
Still believes

The night keeps score
The night keeps time
If you know the mark
Then answer mine

Blood moon children, answer me
Blood moon children, come and see
We are the hunger
We are the key
Blood moon children, call back to me

Blood moon children, take my hand
Blood moon children, make your stand
Come out of shadow
Come out and breathe
Blood moon children, call back to me

I don’t need a savior
I don’t need a crown
Just one more heartbeat
Cutting through the sound

If you’re out there waiting
If you’ve felt the shift
Meet me where the roses
Learn to sing

Blood moon children, answer me
Blood moon children, come and see
We are the hunger
We are the key
Blood moon children, call back to me

I sat cross-legged in the ash
Palm to palm, I held my breath
Moonlight split the cellar glass
And I drifted out of flesh

My fangs felt cold against my gums
My veins like wire under skin
Then I saw that old church rise up
Like a scar I walked back in


Black roses on the altar rail
Red smoke curling through the beams
I heard my name in the stone walls
Like it came from another dream


In the red church
I found my ghost
In the red church
I found the most
Blood in the glass
Blood in the gold
(come home) (come home)
We were never alone


There were women in their lace and soot
Men with rings and fever eyes
All of us with midnight in our blood
All of us with holy lives

The candles dripped like broken vows
The floorboards throbbed beneath our feet
We raised our hands and made it breathe
Like an old song we couldn't leave


Black roses on the altar rail
Red smoke curling through the beams
I heard my name in the stone walls
Like it came from another dream


In the red church
I found my ghost
In the red church
I found the most
Blood in the glass
Blood in the gold
(come home) (come home)
We were never alone

I was born with a split moon heart
Half a grave, half a fire
Now I know why I keep returning
To the place of my desire

If the world forgets my face
I'll still kneel where the shadows grow
'Cause that broken house of winter prayers
Is the only home I know


In the red church
I found my ghost
In the red church
I found the most
Blood in the glass
Blood in the gold
(come home) (come home)
We were never alone

In the red church
We rose from stone
In the red church
We made it home
Blood in the glass
Blood in the soul
(come home) (come home)
We were never alone

I sit with my fangs tucked in
Cross-legged in the salt-stained dusk
Wax on the floorboards
Cold bead on my wrist
I count the cuts in my breath
I count the names I lost
Then the dark unfolds a hallway
And it opens on your faces

All the mourning ones
In their black lace shrouds
Hands full of candles
Eyes full of old rain
They move like they know me
Like they’ve come to wake me up
And the room starts turning
Slow as a prayer

I saw it all
I saw it all
The mourning ones
Were sharpening the dawn
I saw it all
I saw it all
Something is coming
And I’m not alone (not alone)

Then the vision flips
To a boat cut loose at sea
Your pale hands spread wide
Against the crossbeam mast
A nail through the throat
Pinning every plea in place
You thrash for the deep
But the water stays beneath you

Black waves rise below
Like a mouth that won’t close
You beg the hull to break
You beg the moon to blink
But the sky keeps watching
With that same dead calm
And the ship keeps your body
From choosing the sink

I saw it all
I saw it all
The mourning ones
Were sharpening the dawn
I saw it all
I saw it all
Something is coming
And I’m not alone (not alone)

So I open my mouth
And I taste the iron wind
I let the fear pass through me
Like smoke through a cracked door
If I’m meant to wake
Then wake me cruel and whole
If I’m meant to drown
Then teach me how to hold

I saw it all
I saw it all
The mourning ones
Were sharpening the dawn
I saw it all
I saw it all
Nail in the throat
But the tide won’t let go (won’t let go)
I saw it all
I saw it all
Something is coming
And I’m not alone (not alone)

Golden steps
Down the first few steps
They catch the fire low
Gold on every edge
Like they were made to glow

Stone under my hands
Cold as river bone
Each turn pulls me down
Deeper into the unknown

And I can smell it now
Old pages in the air
Incense in the dark
Like a spell hangs there

Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)
Take me to the glow
(Show me now)
Crystal colors bloom
In the hidden room
Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)

At the bottom, there it is
A cave of living light
Ruby, jade, and blue
Breaking through the night

Walls like frozen song
Cut from rainbow flame
Every shard says my name
And I shout it back the same

Heart up in my throat
I can hardly breathe
Like I found a secret
Waiting there for me

Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)
Take me to the glow
(Show me now)
Crystal colors bloom
In the hidden room
Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)

I came here trembling
Now I’m laughing out loud
Dust on my boots
But I’m floating now

The dark just opened
Like a jeweled sunrise
And I’m falling forward
With fire in my eyes

Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)
Take me to the glow
(Show me now)
Crystal colors bloom
In the hidden room
Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)

Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)
I found a world of gold
(And I’m not done)
Rainbow sparks explode
In the cave below
Golden steps below
(Down, down, down)

I found it in the hall

A scar across the frame

Paint like dried confession

Still warm around the name

It sighed when I stepped closer

Like it knew my face

Then something old in the hinges

Started giving chase

And it leaned in

Slow and red

Like a mouth that never fed

I heard my own name

Near the floor

Then the silence wanted more

Door in red, door in red

It called me down, it called me in

Door in red, door in red

The dark remembered where I've been

(door in red)

It opens slow

(door in red)

It wants me known

A cold breath crossed the threshold

Like fingers on my throat

The wood began to tremble

As if it learned to խոսk

Something moved behind it

Hungry and awake

Not a face, not a shadow

Just the sound it makes

And it leaned in

Slow and red

Like a mouth that never fed

I heard my own name

Near the floor

Then the silence wanted more

Door in red, door in red

It called me down, it called me in

Door in red, door in red

The dark remembered where I've been

(door in red)

It opens slow

(door in red)

It wants me known

Now the room is narrowing

The air is turning thin

A voice comes through the crack

And everything begins

It does not ask for mercy

It does not need a key

It only keeps on calling

Till the listener is me


Door in red, door in red

It called me down, it called me in

Door in red, door in red

The dark remembered where I've been

(door in red)

It opens slow

(door in red)

It chose my soul

Door in Red
Door in Red

Black ash on your tongue
Cold hands in the sink
Mirror keeps your face
Like it knows what you think

Wax on the altar
Drips slow down the stone
I hear you behind me
But I came here alone

Count the steps
Count the names
Hold your breath
Feed the flame

The room leans in
Like a wound
Something wakes
In the darkened pew

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
Say my name in the dust
Black chapel pulse

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
We rise where the свечи burned
Black chapel pulse

Your ring on the ledge
Your coat on the door
I trace the cracked floor
Like a map to the war

Salt in my pockets
Iron on my skin
Every little curse
Lets the living in

Count the steps
Count the names
Hold your breath
Feed the flame

The walls start to hum
Then they crack
I hear the old choir
Calling back

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
Say my name in the dust
Black chapel pulse

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
We rise where the свечи burned
Black chapel pulse

Kneel for the echo
Stand for the threat
I wore your shadow
Like a chain round my neck

Now the bell swings low
Now the floor splits wide
I let the night in
I let it inside

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
Say my name in the dust
Black chapel pulse

Black chapel pulse
Black chapel pulse
We rise where the свечи burned
Black chapel pulse

I woke in a crypt of salt

Mouth full of iron taste

My coffin split like bark

And the dark began to shake

At my shoulder, something moved

A fold I never named

Pale feathers under skin

Like a bruise with wings aflame

I turned to the black glass

Saw bone become a gate

A second spine uncurled

And called my ancient name

Feathers in the dark

(Feathers in the dark)

I was born for night

But not for earth

Cold between the stars

(Cold between the stars)

My true kind waits for me

Where the dead are worth


I smell snow on dead suns

I taste the vacuum plain

A trail of ash and moon-blood

Running through my veins

The chapel bells are dust

The graves are full of worms

But overhead, I hear

A choir with no return


Their song cuts through my ribs

Like glass through velvet skin

It says, "Come home, blood child

Your exile ends within"

Feathers in the dark

(Feathers in the dark)

I was born for night

But not for earth

Cold between the stars

(Cold between the stars)

My true kind waits for me

Where the dead are worth

I spread them wide

And the ceiling dies

One breath, one scar

Then I leave the sky behind

No holy name

Can seal this seam

I am the hunger

That remembers what it means

[Final Chorus]

Feathers in the dark

(Feathers in the dark)

I was born for night

But not for earth

Cold between the stars

(Cold between the stars)

My true kind waits for me

Where the dead are worth

Feathers in the dark

(Feathers in the dark)

Take my name apart

I am yours at last

Feathers in the Dark
Feathers in the Dark

I fell through a black blue seam
Where the stars were the only thing
No floor, no pull, no down
Just glitter hanging all around

I floated past a silver moon
Like it knew my name too soon
Then the silence split my skin
And I saw the gray hands in

They came in from nowhere
Cold as a blade
Two ash-colored fingers
Finding my face

My chest went hollow
My pulse went thin
I felt my shadow
Tugged from within


Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
You pulled my soul on strings
You pulled my soul on strings

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
I was fire in the void
Now I shake like a toy

They ripped me out of the stars
Like a secret from my scars
I hit the edge of night
With my teeth clenched tight

Then I felt those strings
Hooking every broken thing
Wrist to spine to breath
Like a puppet dressed in death

I screamed with no sound
In that endless black
My heart was a room
That they kept dragging back

And rage lit up
Like a match in rain
I spat at the dark
And tore at the chain

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
You pulled my soul on strings
You pulled my soul on strings

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
I was fire in the void
Now I shake like a toy

I saw my own hands shake
I saw my own name break
But the fear turned sharp
And the dark gave way

If you want my ghost
You’ll have to fight
I’m not your doll
I’m not your night

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
You pulled my soul on strings
You pulled my soul on strings

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
I was fire in the void
Now I burn, now I bite

Gray hands, let me go
Gray hands, let me go
I came back from the edge
With the stars in my throat
