Lyrics

ACT 2 WHEN WE ARE A VAMPIRE whereby
to traveller has mirror been given; hilt-handed they eye higher plateau; whereas stalls of chocolate constant-seen in ancient times, sparsity now influences the view.
Tiny lies are killing me
One day when I was walking I saw you on the street
He was doing all the talking You looked very sweet
Then I saw your face go white I saw your shoulders sag
As you slid to the ground
He took another drag
When we are a vampire We can make you so tired
What kind of lies are feeding you?
Drawn from the neck of something quite untrue Like the man who would be king
Just because of family pride
Or the desire to be famous because of love denied
When we are a vampire We can make you so tired
Great big lies are feeding me
What lies? Big lies.
Big lies? Sneaky lies.
Sneaky lies? Life lies.
What’s that? I’ll explain later.
A temporary source of e-n-e-r-g-y You have to find another
When you’ve sucked the last one dry
Who are we talking about?
I’m totally confused.
Are we vampire or victim?
Just who is being used?
The only protection I know is positivity And in desperate cases chocolate
Joy will set you free
Sometimes we swing to the side of the law Putting on our superhero cape
And in the name of all that is good and light Free huh free huh!
When we are a vampire We can take away your fire When we are a vampire We can make you so tired
Mostly we don’t know we’re doing And if we knew we were doing it We wouldn’t want to be doing it And if you ever find me doing it Say hey! Stop doing it
And I’ll say thanks pal!
This song is about just being a bit more aware Of how we’re using energy
Maybe that’s why vampires are in the air
(I don’t know)
Show you care. Free huh free huh!
