Iced Earth - Dracula lyrics

Do you believe in love?

Do you believe in destiny?

True love may come only once in a thousand lifetimes...

I too have loved...they took her from me.

I prayed for her soul....I prayed for her peace

When I close my eyes

I see her face, it comforts me

When I close my eyes

Memories cut like a knife

The blood is the life, and Christ I defy.

My sworn enemy...birth of a new creed.

Is this my reward for serving God's own war?

The blood I've spilled for faith fulfilled.

To damn her, a disgrace, you spit back in my face.

I served you loyally, and you spew blasphemy.

I avenge with darkness, the blood is the life

The Order of the Dragon, I feed on human life

There are far worse things awaiting man than death

Come taste what I have seen

I'm spreading my disease

I will feed upon His precious child

The human race will bleed, they will serve my need.

(Pre-chorus)

I avenge with darkness, the blood is the life

The Order of the Dragon, I feed on human life

(Chorus)

I am the Dragon of blood, a relentless prince of pain

Renouncing God on His throne

My blood is forever stained

For true love I shall avenge

I defy the creed that damned her
