Verse 1
Moon hangs pale over Yharnam’s spires
Smoke and blood blend into the fires
Cobblestones slick with crimson rain
A hunter walks where the sane go insane
Paleblood runs deep in the veins we’ve drawn
The old ones wake, the night goes on
I came here searching for a cure
Now I’m not sure what I came here for
Pre-Chorus
Beasts in the shadows, eyes glowing gold
Every step I take, I’m losing control
The hunt it calls, it screams, it begs
My hands are shaking, my heart is lead
Chorus
Ohhh, beneath the pale moon’s gaze
Every hunt is just another stage
I fight the monsters, but the truth unfurls
The worst of the beast is the one in my soul
Bloodborne — this curse I can’t outrun
Bloodborne — I’m not the hunter, I’m the gun
I shed their blood to keep the beast at bay
But with every drop I fade away
Verse 2
Saw blade sings through the mist and the gloom
Ludwig’s sword, the Kos parasite’s doom
From Central Yharnam to the Forbidden Woods
Through nightmare realms where nothing good stands
I’ve felled the clerics, I’ve slain the born
I’ve danced with Mergo till the stars were torn
But each victory tastes less like wine
And more like the thing I’m becoming inside
Pre-Chorus
Whispers crawl from the great ones’ mouths
“Accept the gift, let the beast come out”
My fingers twitch, my teeth grow sharp
The line gets thin between light and dark
Chorus
Ohhh, beneath the pale moon’s gaze
Every hunt is just another stage
I fight the monsters, but the truth unfurls
The worst of the beast is the one in my soul
Bloodborne — this curse I can’t outrun
Bloodborne — I’m not the hunter, I’m the gun
I shed their blood to keep the beast at bay
But with every drop I fade away
Bridge
They told me blood would make me whole
Instead it swallowed my heart and my soul
One more beast, just one more kill
Then the beast is me standing on the hill
Claws replace hands, fur meets skin
I’ve hunted the world and the hunt wins
No return, no cure, no end in sight
Just another beast in the endless night
Final Chorus
Ohhh, beneath the pale moon’s gaze
The hunter is gone, the beast takes the stage
I fought the darkness till the fight was done
Now I am the shadow beneath the sun
Bloodborne — the curse finally won
Bloodborne — the hunter is gone
I drank the blood and I became the prey
And the pale moon smiles and turns away…
Outro
Moon sets slow over Yharnam’s bones
Another night falls… another hunter goes home.
(fades out with the sound of a distant church bell and howling winds)
