Lead Vampire

lyrics

woke up to a parking ticket
and a blurry picture of a bloody digit
all day working on this site,
still got another seven hours
til I’m out of here and playing tonight.

but I’m broke and I broke down
Morale is running low now
time’s moving slow
but I've been through worse before
and now I know I've got the knowhow

Outrunning my life
Like hourglass sand
The lost boys are on fire
An inky black cross
Is stamped on my hand
and I'm the lead vampire

it’s all gonna be alright
it’s all gonna be alright

2:30, I’m a little giddy
in the misty morning of the sleeping city
down to my last seven bucks
but at this very moment I just can’t make myself give a fuck

that I’m broke and I broke down
maybe it’s a little lowbrow
but after that kind of show
in the hazy afterglow
it doesn’t matter where we go now.

Outrunning my life
Like hourglass sand
The lost boys are on fire
An inky black cross
Is stamped on my hand
and I'm the lead vampire

it’s all gonna be alright
it’s all gonna be alright

there’s still something that keeps me in it
though this decline is more than 18 minutes
sometimes being in my head is just really hard
(at least that’s what she said)
I get sad but not completely
I can always laugh at porta-john graffiti.
i know there’s no way of knowing
which way to go but let’s just keep going.
