Vampire Lyrics – Olivia Rodrigo (with meaning)
Vampire Lyrics
Hate to give the satisfaction, Asking how you’re doing now, How’s the castle built off people, You pretend to care about, Just what you wanted, Look at you, cool guy, you got it.
I see the parties and the diamonds, Sometimes when i close my eyes, Six months of torture, That you sold as some forbidden paradise, I loved you truly, Gotta laugh at the stupidity.
Cause i’ve made some real big mistakes, But you make the worst one look fine, I should’ve known it was strange, You only come out at night.
I used to think, i was smart, But you made me look so naive, The way you sold me for parts, As you sunk your teeth into me, ohh, Bloodsucker, famefucker, Bleeding me dry like a goddamn vampire.
Every girl i ever talked to told me, You were bad, bad news, You called them crazy god, I hate the way i called them crazy too, You’re so convincing, How do you lie without flinching, How do you lie, how do you lie, how do you lie.
Ohh, what a mesmerizing, paralyzing, Fucked up little thrill, Can’t figure out just how you do it, And god knows i never will, Went for me and not her, Cause girls your age know better.
I’ve made some real big mistakes, But you make the worst one look fine, I should’ve known it was strange, You only come out at night.
I used to think i was smart, But you made me look so naive, The way you sold me for parts, As you sunk your teeth into me, ohhh, Bloodsucker, famefucker, Bleeding me dry like a goddamn vampire.
You said it was true love, But wouldn’t that be hard, You can’t love anyone, Cause that would mean you had a heart.
I tried you help you out, Now i know that i can’t, Cause how you think’s the kind of thing, I’ll never understand.
I’ve made some real big mistakes, But you make the worst one look fine, I should’ve known it was strange, You only come out at night.
I used to think i was smart, But you made me look so naive, The way you sold me for parts, As you sunk your teeth into me, oh, Bloodsucker, famefucker, Bleeding me dry like a goddamn vampire.
