This Is for Keeps
Eternal Yearning: Love Beyond Mortality
Lyrics
The streets are dark, my pulse is flat-lined
The surroundings are gloomy, and my heartbeat is weak.
As I'm running to you.
I am rushing towards you.
You sit completely unaware of what I'm about to do.
You are oblivious to my intentions.
The air is thick with tension much like when we are together.
There's a palpable tension, similar to when we are together.
My fangs are aching as I'm pondering about you and I forever.
I am contemplating a lasting relationship with you despite my inner struggles.
As I round your corner, I am nervous that you won't be my lover.
I am anxious as I approach, fearing you may not reciprocate my romantic feelings.
Knock three times and hope that my pale complexion won't blow my cover.
I knock cautiously, hoping my pale appearance won't give away my true nature.
Answer the door with your innocent face,
Open the door with your innocent expression.
Would you like to leave this human race tonight?
Proposing to transcend humanity and be together tonight.
Eternity will never be enough for me.
Expressing that eternity is insufficient for the speaker's desires.
And eternally will live our infallible love.
Believing their love is flawless and will endure forever.
My brain is pumping at unusual secretion of lust.
The speaker's mind is filled with intense desire.
Your eyes are softer now, your chin, it drips a bloody color of rust.
Noticing physical changes in the person of interest, metaphorically described.
I am raising up the sakes of this round. I am playing for keeps.
The speaker is committed to the relationship and plays for keeps.
Would you like to leave this human race tonight?
Reiterating the offer to leave humanity behind for a shared experience.
Eternity will never be enough for me.
Repeating the theme that eternity is insufficient for their love.
And eternally will live our infallible love.
Reaffirming the belief in the enduring nature of their love.
Follow me into the sea.
Inviting the person to join in a symbolic journey into the sea.
Drown together and immortalize you and me.
Expressing a desire to be immortalized together through a shared fate.
Leave behind this lonely town.
Suggesting leaving behind the current difficult situation.
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down.
Asserting that both individuals deserve better than their current circumstances.
Eternity will never be enough for me.
Reiterating that eternity is insufficient for the speaker's desires.
And eternally will live our infallible love.
Reaffirming the belief in the enduring nature of their love.
Follow me into the sea.
Repeating the invitation to embark on a symbolic journey into the sea.
Drown together and immortalize you and me.
Expressing a desire to be immortalized together through a shared fate (repeated).
(eternally)
Emphasizing the eternal nature of their connection.
Leave behind this lonely town.
Suggesting leaving behind the current difficult situation (repeated).
(eternally)
Emphasizing the eternal nature of their connection (repeated).
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down.
Asserting that both individuals deserve better than their current circumstances (repeated).
