Blackened Heart

Liner Notes

#gothic #vampirelovesong Not a hard one to explain this - I came up with a chord progression, thought 'That sounds a bit gothic', then started singing some lyrics about 'I give my blackened heart to you', thought it sounded like a love song a vampire might sing, and then the rest of the song pretty much wrote itself..

Lyrics

I've slept a 1000 years Inside my own prison made of stone But now, as I rise, I find There's a space beside my throne

Each I night, i roam this land For I've a kingdom to subdue But still, despite the years, I yearn To give my blackened heart to you

For though, I want for nought And I, am the master of this land But still, I find I long TO feel your pulse beneath my hand

And so, I come to you By sea, in a box that's filled with dirt And i think of you each time That I cause more pain and hurt

And now my ship draws near I long to see your sweet face again For eternity is long But I could bear it with a friend

Witches to vampires now! Where next! The delivery matches up to your liners and the music! Slightly eerie slightly sad! Really good again!

So conceptual!!! I adore the story - and your deeper vocals hit hard

Love that rumbling bass line immediately. I want to hear Bill skarsgaard sing this in his Count Orlok baritone. Very moody and goth!
