VAMPIRE
Hot Rod Circuit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're in my head
You're in my mind
You're the one who could save me tonight
So obsessed with your skin and bones
You'll never be alone

your life has become my appetite
I told you how I felt
Everything I've kept inside
Oh girl we should run away before
We run out of time

fragile and thin like porcelain
I'll keep you safe from harm
Two beating hearts with fuel and sparks
We're burning down the town

I've been staying up




I feel my heart pounding
I feel the taste for blood
