| A Portrait Of A Vampire Raven '03 { Kuka on William? Buffyn ajatuksia Spiken menneisyydestä, nykyisyydestä ja tulevaisuudesta, vampyyrin saatua sielunsa takaisin. } Once I looked upon you What I saw was a monster to me But now, no matter how I try The monster I can’t see I thought I had you figured out Just someone who I’d slay Yet now I know I was too proud And there’s a price to pay A century or so ago When you were still alive What happened, I will never know But somehow, there you died The gates of heaven closed up And the only choice was to return Back to the alley, where one life ended And another one started to burn The soul you had was taken Your heart was left dead still Now God has you forsaken But die you never will For years and years you fed and killed The nights became your days To soil and ground their blood was spilled A memory, which stays So evil, so unwanted By daylight, God and sun And still the one who wants you most Is me, the chosen one You think that I am proud of this? The way I feel for you It’s true that ignorance is bliss Cause God I hate the truth You said you’d be the kind of man Who’s good enough for me But love, look at the way I am And tell me what you see A shadow of what used to be I’m standing on a ledge With miles to go before I sleep Now six feet from the edge Maybe it was written down Some unknown prophecy That you would have your soul returned And then come back to me At first I didn’t realize That something wasn’t right But now you’ve opened up my eyes Still I can’t stand the sight The way you hurt for things you did And for your violent past I’m stunned and unsure what to think It all just came too fast But there’s one thing I know for sure No longer will you be A fiend, a killer or impure Beloved enemy I saw when you embraced the cross I stood there when you burned You’ve made amends, I promise you Forgiveness you have earned So if one day the time would come The time for sweet release In my heart I know you will Forever, Rest in peace |
