The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Carmilla" by the artist "Theatres Des Vampires"

Contents

The song "Carmilla" by Theatres Des Vampires describes the captivating and terrifying power of a vampire over her victim. The lyrics convey the sense of inevitability, helplessness, and obsession that the victim experiences in Carmilla's presence.

The first verses paint a picture of Carmilla appearing in the darkness at her victim's bedside. Her "snow-white dress" contrasts with her dark aura, and the feeling of her presence on the victim's chest evokes suffocation and helplessness. Carmilla's sweet charms symbolize an irresistible attraction that the victim is unable to resist.

The chorus emphasizes the inevitability of the vampire's visits. Each strike of the bell in the night marks the approach of Carmilla, gracefully gliding in a trance. The victim is voiceless, unable to move or call for help. Sorrow and pain are replaced by an icy indifference, an apathy that precedes final death.

The second part of the song reveals the dialogue between Carmilla and her victim. The victim, named Mircalla, is conquered by the vampire's charms and desires intimacy with her. Carmilla, reveling in her power, longs to hear Mircalla's screams, signifying her complete submission.

The final lines of the song reveal Carmilla's motives. The vampire's eternal life is imbued with coldness and melancholy, and to sustain her existence, she must make sacrifices. Carmilla states that love and death are inextricably linked in her world, and anyone who rejects her will only see the last ray of light before eternal darkness.

The image of Carmilla in a white dress drenched in blood is the culmination of the song, emphasizing her dual nature: beautiful and terrifying at the same time. The phrase "There are no bloodless sacrifices" serves as a grim reminder of the price one has to pay for intimacy with a vampire.

Her black shadow at the foot of your bed

Her pure white dress, you can feel her

On your breast

You can't stop her

In the coils of her sweet spell

You can feel her,

She's so close to your heart

Every night after tolling of last bell

Silent coming languid, graceful into a trance

You can't stop her,

No, can't talk, can't escape

No whispers, no,

No more sorrow, no more pain

Carmilla comes to me

Mircalla, I want you

Now I see you at the foot of my bed

Your pure white dress is a one great scarlet stain

I can't stop you in the coils of your sweet spell

I can feel you, you're so close to my heart

Every night after tolling of last bell

Silent coming languid, graceful into a trance

You can't stop her,

No, can't talk, can't escape

No whispers, no,

No more sorrow, no more pain

She comes to bring the sorrow

She is like a cold embrace

She murmurs words of madness

She comes to bring the death

Carmilla comes to me

Oh, Mircalla, I want you scream

Oh, Carmilla comes to me

Mircalla, I want you

'You are mine, you shall be mine'

She says 'Love will have its sacrifices

There's a coldness beyond her years,

In her smiling endless melancholy

The refusal to afford you the least ray of light'

You see her under the moon shadow

Standing near the feet of your bed

In her lacy white dress

Bathed, from her chin to her feet

In one great scarlet stain, she says again

'There's no sacrifice without blood'
