Because Poe is a big mean pooface and got the song stuck in my head, compelling me to write this… here are the alternate lyrics. I’m quite proud of how awful they are.

LET IT FLOW (The Vampire Version)
Lyrics by Hilary Hatch
———-

The blood flows red through my undead veins
Not a heartbeat to be seen
A kingdom of circulation,
And it looks like I’m the queen.

My soul is howling like this vampire rage inside
Couldn’t keep it in, darkness knows I’ve tried!

Don’t let them run, don’t let them flee
Be the blood queen you always longed to be
Consume, they’re doomed, don’t let them stray
‘Cause now they’re prey!

Let it flow, let it flow
Can’t hear the pulse anymore
Let it flow, let it flow
Sink my fangs and feel it pour!

I don’t care
Why they’re running away.
Let the blood spill on,
My heart never bothered me anyway!

It’s funny how some power
Makes everyone seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can’t get to me at all!

It’s time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me…
I’m free!

Let it flow, let it flow
I am one with the darkened sky
Let it flow, let it flow
You’ll never see me die!

Here I stand
In arterial spray
Let the blood spill on!

My power pulses through the air without a sound
The plasma spiraling in gory droplets all around
And one thought coalesces like a bloody tide
I’m never going down,
My jaws are open wide!

Let it flow, let it flow
And I’ll drink til the break of dawn
Let it flow, let it flow
All trace of life is gone!

Here I stand
In the night I’ll stay
Let the blood spill on,
My heart never bothered me anyway!
