Shadows of My Heart

(Verse 1)
In a world of night, I was born,
From a kiss of blood and a heart so torn,
Mother's whispers, gentle and kind,
"Don’t hurt, my love, keep the light in mind."

(Chorus)
But shadows linger, they won’t let me go,
I’m a child of sorrow in a tale of woe,
With every heartbeat, I feel the pain,
Vampire's kiss left me with the stain.

(Verse 2)
Kagan came like a thief in the dark,
Took my family, left a bleeding mark,
I was just a girl with dreams so bright,
Lost in the whispers of the endless night.

(Chorus)
But shadows linger, they won’t let me go,
I’m a child of sorrow in a tale of woe,
With every heartbeat, I feel the pain,
Vampire's kiss left me with the stain.

(Bridge)
Raised by the good, in the light I stand,
Hunting the monsters, with a trembling hand,
Though the scars run deep and the tears still fall,
I’ll carry my mother’s love through it all.

(Verse 3)
Memories echo, the laughter we shared,
How she taught me love, how deeply she cared,
Now I’m the hunter, but the prey still bleeds,
In the shadows of my heart, it’s love that I need.

(Chorus)
But shadows linger, they won’t let me go,
I’m a child of sorrow in a tale of woe,
With every heartbeat, I feel the pain,
Vampire's kiss left me with the stain.

(Outro)
So I’ll chase the dark, with her light in my soul,
Though my heart is heavy, I’ll learn to be whole,
For every monster that I rise to face,
I’ll find my peace in the love, not the hate.
