Текст песни
Woke up choking on silver and slime
A worm in my skull whispering crimes
Mind flayer fashion, latest trend
Now every shadow feels like a friend
Githyanki steel and cleric's soft lies
Vampire smirks under moonless skies
Karlach's engine burns hotter than sin
While Gale counts down the days left in him
We’re not heroes, we’re barely alive
Just strays the gods forgot to revive
Tadpole and starlight, dancing on the blade
One heartbeat from madness, one choice from the grave
We’ll burn down the Absolute, or let it burn us instead
But tonight we’re still breathing — so take me to bed
Down by the river where the dreamers all drown
We kiss like tomorrow will never come round
Tadpole and starlight, darling we’re cursed
But damn if this fever don’t feel like the first
Astarion carves love notes in skin
Shadowheart prays where no gods begin
Lae’zel screams Vlaakith’s name like a curse
While Wyll sells his soul just to keep it from worse
I’ve got your blood on my hands and it’s warm
You’ve got my death in your smile like a storm
We loot, we lie, we betray, we confess
Then fuck like the world ends in the next caress
No prophecy owns us, no crown fits our head
Just illithid larvae and words left unsaid
Tadpole and starlight, dancing on the blade
One heartbeat from madness, one choice from the grave
We’ll shatter the brain or let it swallow us whole
But your teeth in my neck still feel like control
Down by the river where the dreamers all drown
We kiss like tomorrow will never come round
Tadpole and starlight, darling we’re damned
But I’d rather go mad holding your hand
If the Emperor wins, if Orpheus screams
If the Netherbrain tears open our dreams
Promise me one thing before we both break
Bury me smiling with your name on my stake
Tadpole and starlight, burning through the night
No gods, no redemption, just you in my sight
We’ll carve out a heaven from infernal design
Or die in each other’s arms — either’s fine
Down by the river where the dreamers all drown
I love you, I love you
Don’t wake me now
Tadpole… and starlight
Tadpole… and starlight
Fade to black Fade to black
