Dragon's Blood

from Circular Logic by Vertigo Fox

lyrics

Sampling a taste of crocodile bones
There's a visceral pulse of decay in my soul
She named me nightmare
A dream of the jungle, alone but whole
Exotic dark markings on this tawny coat
And alien ferocity in my heart
Seeking the taste of something living and wholesome
The tables have turned on you
Now I can see what it is to be a part of this world they all wanted to burn
I'm filled with an alien power, it hungers
And this is not the lesson I expected to learn

To pounce and to hold the night in my paws
Crushing your spine in my jaws
To savour the blood as it ceases to flow
To play the tooth and claw
To wait just out of sight in the shadows
Haunting your path, you don't know
To hold life and death in my claws
So come dance

I'm scheming gleefully in the shadows
Feeling my pumping blood
Can sense her watching, see a flash of her looking at me
I'm unseen, a tawny flicker in the dark places
A savage bloodthirst in my soul
Exotic markings on my naked fur
Eager for a feeding to unfold
Now I can see what it is to be the predator
To roam my space
To enjoy the chase
To be the thing that really devours

And I'm not sure I can discern
What the meaning is of this bloodthirsty turn
I'm aflame with alien passion, enticing
And this is not the lesson I expected to learn

I'm aflame with alien passion, enthralling
This is not the lesson I wanted to learn

Vertigo Fox enjoys long walks and hikes, though the cats he inevitably encounters always tell him they're prowls.
