The Vampire 05:37
Heading home, it's dawn, bus window frames the sky bats follow way downtown Vampir's on my mind think I'm going blind it must be light outside no need to rewind I’m stuck in that night I only want to set you free, let's call me a martyr and set you free I think you bit me first I think I lost my spine I think I don’t regret no more I don’t even mind I think I see it in your eyes when you stare into mine poisons we share in our heads you’re just as scared as I Vampir I only want to set you free let’s call me a martyr and set you free

I'm nostalgia, I'm an astronaut -- blue bell sirens in my oxygen I'm the cold walk to your dark house, the leaves they changed again the summer's coming I'm alcoholic dreams of being 19 -- 23 is an old year and I don't know no better I'm still a punk kid, starting fights with my neighbors I lost a fight last night, screaming horrible things

And I'm such an adult with highschool stuck in my head I've got a lovely job and a lovely room flowers on the bedside table, honey how are you? cause it seems so sad to see you so confused And you should run away to another place, find a friend with a brand new face Get a job and find a wife, make up for all the favors * * Stanza by Wind Up Bird

in my room I’m torn apart outside, I’m torn apart don’t want to sleep on this world don’t want to eat on this world I see your face on every girl I try wasting time on my geetar, but I just can’t lie anymore past noon I’m torn apart I’m fainting at the thought I should bury my head on some world or I should leave my head in some pool I see your face on every girl I try wasting time on my geetar, but I just can’t lie anymore ~Heard you fall about 5 feet a thump I couldn’t believe you’re not really what i think you’re gonna claw me in my sleep I’ll take it while you’re alive feed you poison till you die won’t wanna live on this world see your face on every girl~

My mind is slipping all the time I couldn’t find the strength to getchoo yet I’m like a self-conscious-cigarette don’t make it hard all the songs about the nature girls aw man it’s hard I just wanna get up but my mind’s too slow you’re always walking in the dark I’m stuck here staring at the radio I wanna roll and be a dog even if you could Find me I wouldn’t stick for too long I’m stuck here staring at the radio oh why won’t this car battery just die? you can call me the real Talking Head, where my heart was there’s nothing left please turn it off, another word about the nature girl and I’d be hard with nothing to get up

ELABORATE SYMPHONY OF DEATH HAVING DRUNK THE LIGHT COOL HE ASKED-- HOW IT WOULD GO WHAT MOON THINGS

Vampir 03:10
I’m not alone, watch your step, in your room you caught my eye tired eyes and knotted hands, a walk to not soon forget Morning Mocking Bird, Goodnight a bite you sank right through me lost in bitter beauty sky brightens up five AM breath escape from the world Rest again, Vampir

I think that the sweetest things are better off alone, to dissolve in the ground like animal bones. With no time to think about all the little things -- a shopping list or your mom weeping. At the hospital, my boss was an ancient astronaut -- at least that's what he told the cops, when they pulled him over on the thruway, 96 in a 65 -- Said "son, where's the fucking fire?", I said "it never goes out in my mind, because it's what hurt my wife, and I'm speeding now so I can hold her hand, because I can't tell her it's all right." I cum on your lips, and you say thanks for my well wishing -- it's the parts that haunt in this old friendship. Cut my line at sea and let me drift for years, until my beard glows white with salt, yeah my brain's full of holes, too much memory pumping out my dirty mouth... Said "son, where's the fucking fire?" I said "I let it die in my mind, because it burned so bright, and I'm speeding so I can hold your hand, because I can't tell you it's all right."
