VAMPIRE
Kat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting here, lonely tomb
How many years have I been so doomed?
No use to think it's been so long
Centuries have come and gone
Yet I still await here for something more to give me back the thrill
Pointless to think of a purpose here
If only I could kill
Never thought life would be so cold
Once I was a king now I'm all alone
So here's to the lonely hearts cause mine is beating still
Will this curse ever end?

A trail of blood across the ground
Another mortal Ive feasted on
Though not for fun, just to survive
Blood no longer tastes like wine
Many a time have I tried to starve
But it never seems to work
Nor can I will myself to stay outside
And burn beneath the light

Sleep the day, stalk the night
Drink the blood, fear the light
Kill again, hate my ways
Kill myself so hard to say

So Ill go on rotting on through the years




Until this curse is done
Or maybe I'll someday had enough and step beneath the sun

The vampire sits in a lonely tomb and contemplates the years that have passed by, wondering if there's more to life or if their existence is pointless.

The vampire even considers the option of killing as a means of satisfaction, highlighting the extent of their desperation.

The chorus emphasizes the vampire's desire for a cure to their curse, questioning whether it will ever come to an end.

The fact that Kat wasn’t even suppose to live past a few episodes is just shocking to me. She carried tf outta that show.
