Lyrics and music by Katt McConnell

lyrics

Gather your crystals and spells as you will,
Ready your phrases, practice your skill.
Keep telling yourself that you're too bold to hide,
But you know in your heart—by blood you'll be my bride!

You can feel it pumping through you,
Hear its rhythm in your sleep.
It tints your guilty pleasures,
And the secrets that you keep.
There is power in its pulsing,
And when spilled, it yields great gain—
But I see you are no stranger
To the spells of blood and pain.

(chorus)

Your magic invited me up here
It compelled me to answer your call,
But the language of demons is tricky at best,
And you are no master at all.
So sweetly you stood in the darkness,
In madness and mist you were clothed.
A slip of the tongue was all that it took,
And now you and I are betrothed!

(chorus)

You had not expected a suitor,
You can try to flee or to fight,
But you've not the power to banish me back,
And by your words your hand is my right!
I don't know what you were thinking,
But somehow you captured my heart,
So now that you're weakest, come hither, my dear,
And pledge till death do us part!

Gather the fabrics and lace for your gown,
Ready your servants and practice your vows,
I keep telling you, love, that you've nowhere to hide,
So now in the rite...by blood you'll be my bride!
