Adrian Borland Vampiric
These bloodshot eyes
Say it's time to rest
Before the dawn
Draws its first breath
Before the sun
Destroys what's left of us
She sinks her teeth
Into the chance
It's all she needs
This dark romance
This act of love
Our defiance
Each selfish art keeps its goal
We eye the prize, our hands like claws
The blood-red lips scream 'mine not yours'
Vampiric.
Vampiric love.
I throw a switch
To break the gloom
A mirror shows
An empty room
She says she must
Be going soon
Each selfish art keeps its goal
We eye the prize, our hands like claws
The blood-red lips scream 'mine not yours'
Vampiric.
Vampiric love.
These bloodshot eyes
Say it's time to rest
Before the dawn
Draws its first breath
Before the sun
Destroys what's left of us.
