Bloodletter Lyrics

You never see him out in the sunlight
He's waiting for the shadows to fall
Moving under cover of darkness
Searching for a victim to maul
Lock up your doors so tightly
Keep all your windows shut
'Cause on this night the blood will flow
Flow before the dawn

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter

Roaming in the valley of darkness
Never moving far from the grave
Waiting at the edge of your nightmare
Seeking out the blood that he craves
So if your hear a tap on your window
You know that your time has come
On this night the blood will flow
Flow before the dawn

In the night wrap up tight
Vampires bite
Bloodletter, bloodletter

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Scream in the night
Keep out of sight

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Bloodletter

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Bloodletter
Bloodletter

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The track tells the eerie tale of a vampire who dwells in shadows, patiently awaiting the opportunity to strike to satisfy his insatiable thirst for blood. It explores themes of fear, vulnerability, and the primal instincts that drive creatures of the night to seek their sustenance. More than likely it can be interpreted as a metaphor for the lurking dangers that exist in the shadows. Overall, the song evokes a sense of suspense and foreboding, warning listeners to be mindful of their surroundings and the potential darkness that exists within the world.
