VERSE 1
footsteps in the gravel,
cold breath in the air.
i move like something feral,
half sin, half prayer.
the trees lean in to listen,
my pulse runs off the track—
i feel the world go missing
when the night pulls back.
PRE-CHORUS
and there’s a hum
under my skin,
a quiet drum
pulling me in.
CHORUS (mystic, hypnotic)
nightblood’s calling,
dragging me out of the light.
i feel it crawling,
waking the animal side.
i don’t choose it—
it chooses its time.
yeah, nightblood’s calling,
and i’m not even trying to hide.
VERSE 2
shadows stretch like warnings,
the ground shifts under me.
i’m built for darker mornings,
for things you shouldn’t see.
my heartbeat’s getting louder,
like something taking shape—
the air tastes even prouder
when i can’t escape.
PRE-CHORUS
and there’s a pull
under my ribs,
it’s never full,
it always lives.
CHORUS
nightblood’s calling…
BRIDGE (creepy calm → rising)
i feel the shift,
i feel the sway,
the human part
falls far away.
the forest breathes,
it knows my name—
i move where
nothing stays the same.
FINAL CHORUS (bigger, haunting)
nightblood’s calling,
dragging me out of the light…
