In My Head 01:15
Lyrics: Hush now, thank you for the blood, my friend Anyway your life was about to end If you want I can sing you a lullaby To help pass the time 'til death comes by "Under a blood moon in the heart of the night If a two tongued virgin should die dressed in white the lions will dance and the roosters will sing at the end of her life, will be born a new king" Someone sang this to me just like I did to you But what it really means, I never knew For centuries it's been stuck in my head I could go on... but Oh...

I Need More 01:31
Lyrics: You're dead... I remember when Dracula first came to town Took one look at me, I thought I would drown His kiss had a taste that I never had before He gave me a little, and now I need some more Now alone, I roam the streets of Montreal Like some creepy phantom in a music hall He bit me, it changed me, but then he was out the door He gave me a little, and now I need some more Since he’s gone back to his homeland The afterlife feels so empty and bland Only he can break me out of this curse Bring back my joie de vivre and my thirst On your own Immortality can be a routine Oh Dracula won’t you think of poor Seraphine On that day, you changed me, I woke up and swore Let me pay you back, and give you so much more

Lyrics: Remember me? Seraphine Made me a vampire at sixteen Ever since I've been trying to repay you And I thought maybe this small favour could do If my calculations are right The blood moon will happen on prom night Drink virgin blood until a girl has died Then be all powerful with me right at your side You'll be the king of the night And I'll be Prom Queen Faithfully yours, signed Seraphine

Fear 02:53
Lyrics: There was a time when humans lived so afraid Of vicious, mysterious creatures in the shade Every parcel of night could be hiding a threat Everyone felt fear as soon as the sun would set All that’s left now is just a souvenir Nobody has the time for good old-fashioned fear I’ve been relegated to a legend and a joke If I taste burned out blood one more time, I will choke Fear, makes the blood soft in your mouth Fear, I’ve been searching for it north and south Fear, the most beautiful human state Makes eternity worth all the wait I’ve tasted dread, anxiety and sadness Worry, panic, a little bit of madness It’s all stale and it’s all sour But once I regain all my power I’ll taste the fear, when they surrender and cry Fear, that little scream before they die Fear, the most beautiful human sate Makes eternity... Once I regain all my power Every single neck I devour Will have the unmistakable flavour The incredible, delicious savour of fear

Lyrics: Dracula: I was quite surprised to get your invitation To this very strange teenage celebration Seraphine: It’s you, you really came? And you remember my name It’s like no time has passed Wow! Vampire mail gets around fast But now we must be swift I've gotten you an incredible gift So let’s go to the prom tonight Those poor young humans won’t put up a fight Dracula: Of course I remember you Seraphine: New Orleans, spring 1862 Dracula: In a white elegant dress, you looked pretty in death I remember the smell of your very last breath But now we must be swift You've given me an incredible gift Take me to the prom my dear The weak young humans will tremble in fear Seraphine: Under a blood moon in the heart of the night If a two tongued virgin should die dressed in white The Lions will dance and the Roosters will sing At the end of her life will be born a new king Dracula: (Under the moon that virgin Waits for sacrifice!) Seraphine: Under a blood moon in the heart of the night If a two tongued virgin should die dressed in white The Lions will dance and the Roosters will sing At the end of her life will be born a new king Both: Under a blood moon in the heart of the night If a two tongued virgin should die dressed in white The Lions will dance and the Roosters will sing At the end of her life will be born a new king But now we must take flight Before we end the night Dracula: So, Take me to the prom my sweet Both: Those fresh young humans will be ripe to eat

Lyrics: Seraphine: I remember a gown, my white gown My first night on the town I was a debutante at her ball When he appeared I never debuted at all Isn’t it odd, Seraphine, don’t lose your cool It’s just a girl in a dress acting like a fool They are young, they are stupid, dancing and drinking Wait, why? What is going on? What am I thinking? Youth, changing, so trusting and chaste Just for a second, let me remember the taste You killed me, you ruined me, my life was erased For centuries I had forgotten the taste Isn’t it odd, Seraphine, remember at last Changing and growing are things of the past I was young, I was craving… life was beginning Wait, why? What is going? My thoughts are spinning My thoughts are spinning Ahh Dracula: Seraphine I remember... Seraphine: Yeah, yeah, shut up, and die!

Lyrics: Oh dear me, oh Seraphine you must stay still The night has run away with all desire to kill What’s next for me, the prophecy doesn’t say If you don’t have a soul, are you supposed to pray? Oh Seraphine, oh Seraphine, be quiet and serene I haven’t felt this kind of hope since I was just teen It’s been an awfully long night and I can hear my cue I think I’ll stay to watch the sky turn blue
