lyrics

The sun is rising slowly
So I will crawl back home
No one ever told me
That the sun would melt my bones

I will leave you quietly
Such as not I wake you
And I will lie awake in bed
And think of ways to save you

From myself

Safely from a distance
I will come undone
An antihero effort
Not to bleed you dry for fun

And I'm not who you think I am
At least I'm not who I have been
But the bodies keep me up at night
Still severed at the limbs

Well I'm trying to be better
But I can't tell what for
When the sun comes through the window pane
You'll find me on the floor

I am a vampire

Waking up,
To find my Isabelle
In a room
That somehow looks like hell
The chandelier is made of teeth
There's spray paint on the sheets

Wondering if she's breathing
Or how this could have happened
As I move in closer
I can hear a subtle laughing

She says "Darling, you be quiet.
You're really not so bad.
I love you, you're not scary,
Now won't you come on back to bed?"

I'm not who I think I am
I am not who I have been
As long as you're alright with me
I'm alright in the end
