Lyrics:
I'm not
Going to run
You thought
You won
You're caught
In the rising sun
And soon
You'll be undone
You're not
The only one
My hunger
Has but begun
The cost
of the price of blood
One drop
Won't be enough
Seven thousand people, gone
Seven thousand souls
Like cattle for your lofty goals
Like livestock for the slaughter
I'm not your plaything anymore
Your blood bank, or your whore
No longer at your back and call
No longer just a thrall
My teeth sink in your wretched flesh
As I drink in the last that's left
The scars that sting upon my back
Will pale compared to yours, I bet
For years and years you've haunted me
For every slip, you've taunted me
But now your reign is to an end
You'll never hurt a soul again
It's time for you to cut and run
I'll turn you inside out for fun
And if by then you haven't had enough
A shame, cause I have just begun
A little taste of freedom
Sates me more than blood
Thinking you've beat me was your last mistake
This time I'll be the one to watch you break
And if by then you're still not finished yet
That's gonna be your last regret
A little taste of my revenge
Is all you'll live to get
Nearly two centuries ago
since I became your little toy
But I won't take it anymore
I'll come a-knockin' at your door
Nearly two centuries ago
Since I became your little toy
But you don't scare me anymore
You best beware, the hunt is on
Nearly two centuries ago
Since i became your little toy
But you don't own me anymore
I'm so much stronger than before
Nearly two centuries ago
Since I became your little toy
But you won't use me anymore
I've broken free of your control
Nearly two centuries ago
Since I became your fucking thrall
But you don't sway me anymore
What's mine is mine, no longer yours
Nearly two centuries ago
Since I became your fucking thrall
But you won't stop me anymore
You'll meet your end here, Cazador
It's time for you to cut and run
I'll turn you inside out for fun
And if by then you haven't had enough
A shame, cause I have just begun
A little taste of freedom
Sates me more than blood
Thinking you've beat me was your last mistake
This time I'll be the one to watch you break
And if by then you're still not finished yet
That's gonna be your last regret
A little taste of my revenge
Is all you'll live to get

    This one's great. I like how the song focuses on Astarions inner feelings, and not on the pretty packege they come in.

    DANG. okay, I did not expect THIS?! Astarion is (tied with Karlach because I love that woman) my favorite character, so I was specially excited to hear what you've been cooking. And dang, that's a whole damn meal and then some more! It's such an emotional raw song, filled with all the things our vampire man works so hard to hide behind his flamboyant personality: resentment, anger, determination, euphory for tasting freedom yet the NEED to defy Cazador because who knows how long his blessing will be, right? I feel like the chorus is exactly that, this need to strike back, almost like a cornered hurt animal. Also, the repetition of the bridge, with the suble changed in the second pair of verses, just like the daily routine he had to suffer all those decades, tortured, obliged to hunt innocent people for his master, deprived, etc... The final chorus is like letting go of a chokehold...

    I stumbled across this video by pure accident, but OMG this is amazing!! I am truly fascinated by the lyrics, the increasing tempo, your voice and the way it all comes to "fuck you, Cazador" in the end. It shows SO MUCH of Astarion's inner demons, insecurities and fears! I am flipping blessed by youtube just showing me this video as recommended, for me this one is the best Astarion fan song from now on 💜

    Absolutely stunning. I love how the song, rather than focusing on Astarion's outer facade of a flamboyant and theatrical man, is focused on the inner turmoil our sweet little star is going through and how intense the emotions behind his mask are. (I think this makes sense. I love how the song represents Astarion's actual character, that's what I'm trying to say. Not the best at articulating my thoughts, apologies^^)

    Incredible! I love the fact that in this particular song, my focus was on the words and your enchanting singing, rather than the music - although of course, when I came back to reality and heard the beat, the music seemed perfect. The way you sing it sounds like awareness, pure rage, despair and hope all at the same time. It sounds like a familiar echo in the head, an obsessive thought, like a desperate routine. It sounds like Astarion. Very much about the character and his thoughts, as expected from you. Absolutely stunning.
