Nature made me refused to face me/
Don't see the light that a life is based in/
Vamp invasion all capes arrangin'/
Drain the veins of any life that's wastin'/
Think that's easy would you like to feed me?/
Take my power would you like to bleed me?/
Drain me drink me thank me tip me/
Feel a burning urge if you lightly sip me/
Take a needle and try to prick me/
Transfused booze now the vitals ticking/
Cats is hissing Ax ain't missing/
Narcissisting classic instinct/
Ax is risking all he has/
A belly full of blood and big bar tab/
I'm telling you to run when things gone bad/
I'm telling you it's fun when things gone bad/
My job is lawless godless never with an office/
gathering a thought process and coffees/
stir 'em with a nail with a pail hand/
look under the veil and reveal what the real plan/
Yeah yeah yeah back to the coffin/
Unh unh unh back to the coffin/
This is a beast who would too often/
Hardcore heart won't soon be softened/
Not for the rules and not for the cross and/
Not for views of a dead man watching/
Not for the vibe they try to provide/
and not for the cost of a constant caution/
Gnostic spastics all contracted/
Same infection noxious toxin/
Similar to living in inhibiting boxes/
Let's make circles waves like chakras/
Take to the night air till then I'm right here/
Yeah living night mare/
And something else about this all seems relatable/
Take to the night air till then I'm right here/
Yeah living night mare/
And even though I've drank my hunger is insatiable/
Nature is the Mother/
Man is the Son Vampire is his Brother/
Moon is for Daughter humankind feed my hunger/
Whose influence you under?/
Some born food source some born hunter/
Etched metal nameplate name date: Axiom/
Now until the end grave-mates with my friends/
Restless tasteless same state as them/
But the guest list says Jesus and Buddha with the Zen/
Humans are a miracle beautiful but terrible/
I capture them in stereo and bring 'em to the burial/
Check the pulse and scenario yo/
A walking contradiction I'm a curse and a miracle/
But that's the thing about nature/
Everything is endangered/
Yeah you can feel it in the heart beat/
On a bright day or a dark week/
Weak weakness for the weak/
I survive quick using both my front teeth/
Truth but the labeled me a freak/
For the sustenance I seek all I wanna do is eat/
