About Gloomy Sunday Tears:

Gloomy Sunday Tears is a song by Vampyrouss which first appeared as an advanced single and music video to promote the 2007 demo "Compendium Vampyrica" on which it featured. 


As with most of tracklisting from that demo the song was re-recorded for the 2017 album of the same name "Compendium Vampyrica" and then appeared along with the whole Vampyrouss back catalogue on the "Barely (A)Live Rehearsal" release in 2021.


Uniquely among Vampyrouss songs the lyrics for Gloomy Sunday Tears were not written by vocalist Kazraine but rather adapted from the infamous Hungarian suicide song "Gloomy Sunday" by Rezső Seress. The music however is a completely unrelated original piece written by Vampyrouss songwriter Azrael.

Sunday is gloomy my hours are slumberless

Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless

My frail white flower will I never awaken you?

Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you

Angels have no thought of ever returning you

Should they be angry if I thought of joining you my love?

Side by side


I waited 'till dreams like my heart were broken

The flowers all dead and the words unspoken

The grief that I knew was beyond consoling

The beat of my heart was a church bell tolling

My eyes could not see one I wanted to love me

The Earth and the flowers are forever beyond me

The bell tolled for me but the wind whispered "never!"

It's you that I love and I bless you forever with

Gloomy Sunday tears

For you


Gloomy is Sunday with shadows I spend it all

My heart and I have decided to end it all

Soon there'll be candles and prayers that are sad I know

Let them not weep, let them know that I wish to go

Death is no dream, for in death I'm caressing you

In my heart and soul I'll always be missing you my love

My dying bride
