Blue Oyster Cult - Tainted Blood Lyrics

We danced among the mortals
Blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty
Fills the midnight air
I offer first taste
To my love as is always
Tainted blood, she cries and dies
My whole world fades away
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap mе into the chains)
Do whatever it takеs to end my pain
Without her, eternity is misery
Throughout the many years
Our lives were oh-so-sweet
But this tainted blood has taken
Everything from me
No place for me within this world
The dance is done
No reason to remain
You were the only one
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
There's nothing, nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
