Oh the sweet addiction 
Of forbidden fruit 
Oh the strange affliction 
That has taken root 

Oh the hidden cancer 
Cancer of the soul 
Oh the necromancer 
Inside us all 

I have never seen this many 
People gathered in one place together 
Don't ask about it 
You don't want to know 

Caught up in the fury of euphoria 
They say will last forever 
Don't ask about it 
It might just be so 

Oh the burning candle 
Oh the pretty flame 
Come fly into the night with us 
And feel the same 

Oh the sweet surrender 
Oh the solemn vow 
Leave your old identity 
And join us now 

I believe that I have been 
Through this before 
And I can still remember 
Maybe a past life 
I just can't tell 
The faces and the uniforms 
Are changed yet 
There's something so familiar 
Am I still under 
That same old spell 

Oh the sweet addiction 
Of forbidden fruit 
Oh the strange affliction 
That has taken root 

Oh the love of darkness 
Oh the vampire's kiss 
Have mercy on a people 
Who would dream like this 
Who would dream like this 
Like this
