The price she paid

\nIn her soft receding footsteps I can hear the hint of dread
\nIn the breeze across her shadow I can taste the living dead
\nI had thought that I would love her through the whole eternity
\nNow a man who died in torment has unwed the best of me<\/p>\n
In a flicker of his passing she was tempted from her path
\nNow she has unending aeons to regret the aftermath
\nFor one single act of folly she must pay her mortal soul
\nAnd I know that I will die without the chance of being whole<\/p>\n
There are forces under nature that can never be denied
\nThey’re unleashed in dreadful measure when their masters are decried
\nOnce they hold you in their tendrils you are doomed for evermore
\nFor the undead are the soldiers who enforce the dreadful score<\/p>\n
On the night she danced his music she was left one final choice
\nWould she give herself to evil or reject his honeyed voice
\nFor a glimpse she thought of heaven she would gladly pay his price
\nNow she knows he was a liar but is locked within his vice<\/p>\n
In the sunlight we have found her still unsullied in her grave
\nBut it’s far too late to help her and she’s no soul left to save
\nWith the last of her resistance she has torn my grief apart
\nI must drive the stake she gave me through my love’s unbeating heart<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
