[Verse 1]
Midnight on the chapel stone
Van Helsing walks alone
Silver rounds in his coat
A prayer knife at his throat
Claw marks on the iron gate
Fresh tracks in the frozen hay
He smiles like he knows your name
Then he steps into the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that howl in the dark
It means blood and a start
If you run, I will find
Every beast in the pines
[Chorus]
Van Helsing, take the night
Silver teeth, silver bite
Van Helsing, hold the line
Wolf king, your time is mine (mine)
Van Helsing, cut them down
Hear that cry all through the town
Van Helsing, cold and bright
Monster, meet the holy light (light)
[Verse 2]
Old world maps in the fire
Names of graves and old desire
She wore fur and a human face
Left a trail he could not trace
Bells shook hard in the square
Kids hid under splintered stairs
He loaded truth in each hand
And drew a blood-red line in sand
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that howl in the dark
It means blood and a start
If you run, I will find
Every beast in the pines
[Chorus]
Van Helsing, take the night
Silver teeth, silver bite
Van Helsing, hold the line
Wolf king, your time is mine (mine)
Van Helsing, cut them down
Hear that cry all through the town
Van Helsing, cold and bright
Monster, meet the holy light (light)
[Bridge]
Now the moon is split in two
One side blood, one side blue
She says, "Hunter, look at me"
He says, "Then you know mercy leaves"
One last shout, one last chain
One last step through the flame
If you bite, you choose your grave
If you hunt, you choose the blade
[Final Chorus]
Van Helsing, take the night
Silver teeth, silver bite
Van Helsing, hold the line
Wolf king, your time is mine (mine)
Van Helsing, cut them down
Hear that cry all through the town
Van Helsing, cold and bright
Monster, meet the holy light (light)
Van Helsing, take the night (take the night)
Van Helsing, own the fight (own the fight)
Van Helsing, end the howl
Night beasts fall right now (now)
