Now I know why you’re afraid of me
I’ll be the first to say, you should be.
Not a villain to be romanticized.
I blend in so well, no one will see.
You’ll know my name, by my bite.
Nocturnal shroud; the death of night.
Even when I’m near, I’m never in sight.
Venom on my tongue, lies that choke.
Veins carry me to your heart, a deadly stroke.
All the pain bottled inside the fangs I can’t hide.
Don’t want to be human, that’d be homicide.
All the pain of something I don’t want to be.
But I can’t deny the natural killer inside of me.
So when you dance, dance carefully.
Or you’ll be my next regretful casualty.
