Vampire, Hold Me Tight Lyrics

I knew we'd dream the world a better place,
and in the blackened windows,
I'd pray the sunlight shine.You save your sorrows for a thousand days,
now on my darkened doorstep
there stands no friend of mine.Each bite I take it brings me closer to death
and in an age of nothing
I wish for something still.
This world, the bible, pills and smiley faces,
the Lord calls shotgun
you must do his crooked will.Vampire, hold me tight.
Let the spirit of your sadness
growl a howl into the night,
vampire, hold me tight,
may your mystifying madness be my guiding light.
(mystifying madness)Well it's not hard to say
but it's so hard to do
the vampire chases me
but I will see her through.And on your templed night

when nothing seemed quite right
you took that sacred right
and ran towards the light.And in the blackened blues
by the silver reed
beneath the golden sun
you were the saddest one.
