Dark as Night
Long in shadow, dark as night
He fights the beast with all his might
An urban jungle, an alleyway
He brings the beast into the frey
This carnal hunger, awesome plight
Long in shadow, dark as night
Intense craving, a haunted moon
Infected now, no more immune
His heart racing, his teeth now long
He knows this urge is oh so wrong
Long in shadow, dark as night
Her scent in head, he needs to bite
Desire now directs his way
Concrete playground, a beast at play
and in her blood he will delight
Long in shadow, dark as night

One thing for sure is, that I know:
the night has two lights that do glow.
Incredible I am, all right,
when long in shadow, dark as night.
