Children of the Night

Beautiful children of the night
Be wary of the light
Though for sunlight you yearn
Your pale flesh will burn

Lovely children of the night
You must keep out of sight
Men cannot be enlightened
They’ll only be frightened

My beloved children of the night
Careful whom you bite
It’s fine here and there
But do take great care

My dear children of the night
Be careful of whose heart you take
It only takes one mistake
To meet a sharpened stake

My wicked children of the night…
