lyrics

i dreamed last night that i lost the first vampire i ever loved
to the cold and snow of Michigan
and those six months of staying up till the dawn have changed my entire life
i’ll never be the same again

and on nights when i can’t sleep
i touch my neck and think of him
looking for the scars i know he’s left
the evidence of how i know he’s changed me
the blood i know he must have kept

and i blinked and then he charmed me
he totally disarmed me
but reminded me to keep the shutters closed
cause he was willing, but only somewhat
or maybe that was me, cause at this point
no one really knows

he was the first time i stayed up till five
to go to work at six
my eyes were heavy but i held on
cause otherwise i’d never got a first kiss

and i blinked and then he charmed me
he totally disarmed me
but reminded me to keep the shutters closed
cause he was willing, but only somewhat
or maybe that was me, cause at this point
no one really knows

or maybe it really was that easy
he just made his mix tapes and moved along
knowing all he ever had to do
was write me some great line from an indie rock’n’roll song

and i blinked and then he charmed me
he totally disarmed me
but reminded me to keep the shutters closed
cause he was willing, oh, but only somewhat
or maybe that was me, cause at this point
no one really knows
