Vampire Lessons Lyrics



Red dress, red nails your thoughts light-dark conspire

I brim with health and a longing that won’t expire

Until it’s done but we both can barely walk

And then we’ll run and spit in the face of dawn

I know I shouldn’t but it’s on



Swiftly unveiled at last I am myself

No retinue cataloguing my moral decline

To know you knew and felt this same hot rage

I nearly screamed then taking you in my arms



Vampire lessons starting now

I’ll have you whole or not at all

Vampire lessons starting now

Get on the floor and be yourself



I’ll call you in the night and we’ll go all the way

It can’t go on like this but there’s no other way

Someday we’ll be free

Until then there’s this

But I enjoy being in this body for now



Vampire lessons all the time

Pretty soon it’s gonna be for real

Vampire lessons all the time

It works until you start to feel
