Vampire is a dark throbbing song, like the beating of a heart. It was posted on YouTube along with Noctica (the song) and Dysphoria when the Dysphoria EP was released. I really enjoy Noctica's ability to reference cliches in interesting ways, like the line "There’s no apple beholding my eye". I don't know how to turn the feels into words for this one. It's very good, kind of mesmerizing. I guess I'll just say it has a certain je ne sais quoi.
I'm falling apart as I sift through the dark
That has taken a hold of my mind
If “Suffering’s art”, I’m just playing my part
There’s no apple beholding my eye
The red on my teeth is beginning to bleed
Through this mask that I wear all the time
I’m losing control of the hold on my soul
As it’s maiming me just to survive
Cross a heart just so I could die
Break my own just to feel alive
Crossroads in a double bind
In the dark looking for a sign
Maybe I’m just doomed to be forever misaligned
I’m cheating on death hoping for a little more time
I just want to stand in the sunlight
I don’t even care if I’m burned alive
Cos this face that I hide’s the only one that feels right
And I’m sick of wasting my life….
Blood’s all I crave now
Since death’s all I taste now
In this world of gray I just pray the red takes me away
In this life after sundown
I just want to stand in the sunlight
I don’t even care if I’m burned alive
Cos this face that I hide’s the only one that feels right
And I’m sick of wasting my life
I just want to stand in the sunlight
I don’t even care if I’m burned alive
Cos this face that I hide’s the only one that feels right
And I’m sick of wasting my life
