I wasn’t born as a vampire
I wasn’t born with a mask on my skull
I wasn’t born for the sick jokes
I was born for nothing at all
I sent them off with a swift nod
It felt like mice pulling thorns from my paw
I did not beg for forgiveness
I will beg for nothing at all
You hid your power like a landmine
And drew in red blood a cross on my palm
We dared not dream at the same time
So we would dream of nothing at all
