Vampire

from Golden Delicious by Laura Meyer

/

lyrics

You were always the victim
You were always the victim
I was the vampire

You kept your veins well hidden
Yeah and then you would hit them
In the nighttime

When you’d come to my bed
Say, get me out of this mess
And you pour out your pain, like blood
Then you say to confess

Now tell me who is the villain
Tell me how did your symptoms
Turn into mine?

It’s so easy to trick them
When everyone is addicted
You always seem to survive

And I’ll let you bleed to death
Before I let you back into my life

You were always the victim
You were always the victim
I was the vampire

Sometimes love is a fiction
You think it’s something it isn’t
Sometimes you just gotta lie

When you come to my bed
There’s no place for your head
Cause I don’t want your blood, your body, or love
I just need rest
