Out on the street, I’m stalking the night,
I can hear my heavy breathing.
Paid for the kill but it doesn’t seem right;
something there I can believe in .Voices are calling from inside my head.
I can hear them, I can hear them,
vanishing memories of things that were said,
they can’t try to hurt me now.But a shot in the dark, one step away from you.
A shot in the dark, always creeping up on youTaught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn’t listen I learnt how to fight
I opened up my mind to treasonBut just like the wounded and when it’s too late
They’ll remember they’ll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me nowBut a shot in the dark one step away from you
A shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
A shot in the dark always creeping up on youBut just like the wounded and when it’s too late
They’ll remember they’ll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me nowBut a shot in the dark one step away from you
A shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you -
“So I get it. I know you’re this ridiculous superhero and you always have been. Shit, you might not believe in magic, but to me you’re as close to magical as anything I’ve ever known. And not just because of the whole werewolf thing, but because you’re you. All special and brilliant and patient and funny and you know, sort of good-looking sometimes, I guess.”

I was the one fucking him, but he had his hands inside of me, tearing through my soul and rearranging me inside until there was room for nothing else but him. He was my vengeance, my purpose, my life and death encapsulated in one moment.

When I’d asked, he’d simply grunted and opened up his smartphone to do whatever the fuck werewolves did online. Probably stalking vampires on Tinder, because why the hell wouldn’t those be real, too?

“Sometimes, when it’s real, it doesn’t take long at all.”

“My feelings for you are one hundred percent organic and locally sourced! Are you gluten-free tonight, because I’d like to take you on a date! I’d still care about you even if you went mainstream! Roses are red, your shirt is ironic, your drink of choice is probably a mason jar filled with a vodka tonic!”

Many fall as the last enchanter rises
The awakened elder commands
He who controls ancient magic unlocks war or peaceBlood, fire and corruption surge
Power will flow and be supressed
Darkness within takes holdA soul absorbed; consumed by evil
Stolen magic conquers all
The hierarchy will fall; chaos rulesOne must die as the other rises
A broken seal breaks the fragile hold
Death and famine
War and bloodThe long-lost magic brings doom
While it flows on this realm, only turmoil can endure
Control it, rule the world
Destroy it, peace prevailsNo hope when hope is needed
Remember the past, look into the future
Purging the power is the key -
They couldn’t have been more opposite in personality, size, income bracket… pretty much everything.
Except for the loneliness.

“How in the hell did I wind up in my car with an asshole, a cute kitten, and a creepy as fuck snake? That sounded like the beginnings of a bad joke.”

Close your eyes, it’s easier that way
A golden cup and a toast to kings
Lost and decayed, we are cut beyond our saving
But we are home now, the room is still warmFell in love with an angel, a heart that isn’t cold
Say goodnight, we are dying, just hold on
I’ve blessed these shadows and tasted every one
They can’t steal our love tonightA century of open arms that shield the light
This battle scar is healing
Cast all the pain to the tourniquet that binds me
We are home now, the sun won’t hurt you anymoreFell in love with an angel, a heart that isn’t cold
Say goodnight, we are dying, just hold on
I’ve blessed these shadows and tasted every one
They can’t steal our love tonightLove has given me a reason to live
And love has given me a reason to dieFell in love with an angel, a heart that isn’t cold
Say goodnight, we are dying, just hold on
I’ve blessed these shadows and tasted every one
They can’t steal our love tonightFell in love with an angel, a heart that isn’t cold, isn’t cold, isn’t cold
I can feel the pain of the sun as it lights up the air
I can taste the hope, it’s everywhere…Love has given me a reason to live
And love has given me a reason to say goodbye
