Vampire: The Apex Predator

Wolves howl and moon layeth down the eyes,
six feet beneath breeds the immortal kingdom,
this world despise

The cunning werewolves and ghosts of the alternate world,
run for your doomed lives or see my wrath unfurl

Pitch black dark, when nature commands,
craving of the crimson nectar burns my sadistic heart

Colder than the moonlight
and draped in black leather,
I ride on the edge of irresistible ire

Faster than the speed of light
and sharper than a bat sight,
I cripple the mortals with my canine might

Hunting alone with a fearless tone,
I drink the life out of humans to salvage my own

Power to make them one of our kind,
my injected fluid secures our bloodline

With no other desires to fulfill in this world,
all I need is to save myself from the unseen curse

Sunlight, cross, and stakes are my demons,
a drop of the holy water can bring an end to my legions

I’ve pierced the dark corners of the gothic earth
but, couldn’t escape the line of sacred birth

Chalice of blood gives me a taste of immortality,
but the white curse burns me to the ashes of eternity

I’m the devil, I’m the devourer of living beings,
I’m the darkness, I’m the king of supernatural things

I roam as the lord of the underworld beneath the silver sky,
black crows and Satan lead me back to my kingdom before the moon dies

You need to hide from the rays of my blasphemous sight,
for I’m the apex predator that will hunt you down before you realize
