Removal of the Oaken Stake

Encased in shadows
 So silently I've slept
 Dreaming of the day
 My needs haphazardly are met
 I recall an ancient time
 When I did rule this land
 But by this godforsaken spell
 The life I'd known was stripped right from these hands
 In death I'm bound
 Nailed to the ground
 Stabbed through the heart
 The only tender human part
 Removal from my breast
 The killing oaken stake
 When this curse is broken
 And these yellowed bones regenerate again
 When this coffin steams so foul
 Glowing with crimson light
 Inhuman sweat shall stain
 The silk as death returns to life
 No, no pity for the fool
 It's fangs to he who stirs my slumber
 Quenching an olden thirst
 To rise once again unencumbered
 I'll live again
 An incubus in human skin
 Buried by time and dust
 A most harrowed secret kept
 Older than memory
 Through history I've crept
 Hidden the ancient world
 Where vampires ruled the lands
 But by man's dreadful mortal schemes
 They've captured us in purgatory's dance
 In death I'm bound
 Nailed to the ground
 Stabbed through the heart
 The only tender human part
 In death I'm bound
 Nailed to the ground
 Right through the heart
 What you'd call lore it's very real to me
 Removal from my breast
 The killing oaken stake
 When this curse is broken
 And these yellowed bones regenerate again
 When this coffin steams so foul
 Glowing with crimson light
 Inhuman sweat shall stain
 The silk as death returns to life
