Shadow of the Vampire - Argyle Goolsby

The sun is setting

It’s imperative our efforts don’t delay

We pack our bags, and check our tags

Onward.

The star awaits

The camera films a countryside

Trapped in the realms of fallen night

Soon we approach The Stranger’s coach

Our horses weaken in their stride

And then we feel…

The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting

The Shadow of the figure forlorn

The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting

Oh, a star is reborn

(Come alive!)

A verbal pact mutually backed

Obeying boundaries of his part

Or so we thought, but now we’re caught

Within the plot’s thick bloody heart

The crew is dead, the sets are red

We’re next.

The camera comes to life

There’s no premiere film of the year

Only the camera’s glassy eye reflects the tale of…

The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting

The Shadow of the figure forlorn

The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting

Oh, This star is reborn!

NIM VIND SOLO

The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting

The Shadow of the figure forlorn

The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting

Oh, This star is reborn!

You cannot direct the director of your destiny

Your scene lies on the cutting floor

Of his shadow
