Pivit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sleepless nights are taking control
1 more line and your ready to go
On your feet and out the door.
5 in the morning and where are you now
Treking the grid and times running out
Your whole life's an empty bag.

You emptied it out
Watched all your dreams come tumbling down
Alienated all those around
Down in a hole and
Who gives a fuck about you now.

You think that there's no other way.
Stuck with the life that you betrayed
I hope you feel it when the sun lights hits your eyes
Your god can't take away the pain.

So just cram that shit up your nose
Weeks gone by and your eyes haven't closed.
Worn the carpet thin again.

5 in the morning and where are you now.




Tweakin's the only way you know how.
Still you clutch that empty bag.

Overall Meaning

In Pivit's song "Vampire," the lyrics tell the story of someone who is struggling with addiction and the consequences that come with it. The first stanza sets the scene, as the person is experiencing sleepless nights and is ready to go out and use again to numb the pain. They are wandering aimlessly through the night, with empty hopes and dreams that have fallen apart before their eyes. Their addiction has pushed away those closest to them, leaving them alone in a dark and hopeless place.


The second stanza reveals that the person feels trapped in their addiction, unable to escape the cycle they have created for themselves. They have betrayed themselves and their loved ones in the process, and they are now left with nothing but emptiness and pain. The last line of the stanza, "Your god can't take away the pain," suggests that the person may have tried to find solace in religion, but it has not offered any relief.


The final stanza describes the person continuing to use drugs despite the negative consequences. They are still chasing the high, even though it has worn them down to the point where they can no longer sleep. The final line, "Still you clutch that empty bag," is a metaphor for the futility of their addiction - they are left with nothing but an empty vessel, grasping at something that will never truly satisfy their desires.
