Vampires - Matt Nathanson

Produced by：David Baron

I understand vampires now

And I see how

They end up alone

I get that when a person's cursed

Sometimes the thirst

Just runs the show

When they said you were bad for me

All I could see

Were jealous fools

But every time we fall asleep

I wake up weak

With puncture wounds

Yeah you had just enough humanity to kick me around

Told me you were drowning when you'd already drowned

But you just couldn't help yourself

You do it over and over

And you just couldn't help yourself

You won't take it from nobody else

You showed me off to all your friends

And I got the sense they hated me

You said you'd never felt so alive

It's hard to deny the irony

Oh why can't you trust me

Let down your guard

Not everyone who loves you

Is trying to stake your heart

But you just couldn't help yourself

You do it over and over

And you just couldn't help yourself

But you won't take it from nobody else

You could've counted on me

When you needed to feed

You could've counted on me

To put some color in your cheeks

You could've counted on me

When they came for revenge

You could've counted on me 'til the end

Oh but you just couldn't help yourself

No you you couldn't help yourself

And you just couldn't help yourself

You were lost and found and you you you

Just couldn't help yourself

But you won't take it from nobody else
