In my blood, Death swims.
He feeds on me year and day.
There's only so much time left for me
in my life.
I'm so hungry for bliss,
I never have been this hungry before.
The fever in me rises and rises,
I roam around by night.
I have a gift for you,
it's the best I have.
I want something of me to stay,
that's why I want to give it to you
in this life.
Your eyes mirror eternity,
this night makes me immortal.
I lay my hopes into your lap.
This night makes me immortal,
by my blood.
Once, someone gave me his blood,
it now lives on and on inside of me.
He didn't ask if I wanted to,
he didn't say a word.
If I have to perish now,
I'll simply hold on to you.
I'm not an avenger who destroys.
Tonight, I'm a creator.
I have a gift for you...
Your eyes mirror eternity...
