[Verse]
[John Blaylock's Perspective][Cynical][Fast Paced]
Another night, another soul to drain
The ticking clock, a constant, dull refrain
Your fragile life, a flicker in the dark
Soon to be extinguished, leaving not a mark.
You offer solace, unaware the price
A fleeting moment, then eternal ice.

[Pre-Chorus]
[Building Tension][Desperate]
The hunger gnaws, a fire in my veins
Each passing moment, sanity wanes.
This ancient curse, a relentless, cruel disease
To feast and fade, on my bended knees.

[Chorus]
[Desperate Plea][Orchestral]
Oh, the endless night, the fading light
Another victim, to make it right.
This gilded cage, this eternal decay
Must feed to live, come what may.

[Verse]
[John Blaylock's Perspective][Cold Detachment][Slow Tempo]
Your painted smile, a mask of sweet deceit
A willing pawn, you're on the chopping street.
No tenderness, no passion in my touch
Just ancient need, I hunger far too much.
The lifeblood flows, a crimson, sweet release
A transient balm, that brings no lasting peace.

[Bridge]
[Melancholy][Haunting]
The memories blur, a tapestry of pain
Of lovers lost, and lives I've slain.
This endless cycle, a soul-crushing blight
Forever bound, to this eternal night.

[Chorus]
[Desperate Plea][Orchestral]
Oh, the endless night, the fading light
Another victim, to make it right.
This gilded cage, this eternal decay
Must feed to live, come what may.

[Outro]
[John Blaylock's Perspective][Dismissive][Fading Out]
A final breath, a flicker, then it's gone.
A quick disposal, before the break of dawn.
Her meager dwelling, a pyre to consume
Another trace, erased from life's dark room.
Disposable. Forgettable. Just fuel for the flame.
Another night. It's all the same.
