[Intro] Something changes when the sun comes up... Something wakes when the sun goes down... [Verse 1] Midday creeping across the floor I pull the curtains a little more One thin ray finds its way inside And every nerve in me wants to hide Everybody says I need some light But something in me doesn't feel right I step outside, try to pretend Then feel that burning start again [Pre-Chorus] No sharpened teeth, no ancient curse But every summer makes it worse I feel a change beneath my skin When the daylight starts giving in [Chorus] I think there's a vampire in me Can't bear the sunlight on my skin Every little ray feels like fire And the dark is my only desire I think there's a vampire in me Something underneath I cannot see When the sun goes down, I can breathe Oh, there's a little vampire in me [Post-Chorus] In me, in me A little vampire in me In me, in me Let the darkness set me free [Verse 2] Long black sleeves in the summer heat Keeping to the shade along the street Everybody's running to the sun I'm counting hours till the day is done I don't need blood, I don't need teeth Just a little shade and some relief Maybe it's strange, maybe it's true There's something in me I never knew [Pre-Chorus] No reflection lost, no coffin bed Just a thousand questions in my head But when the evening starts to fall I feel the life come rushing through it all [Chorus] I think there's a vampire in me Can't bear the sunlight on my skin Every little ray feels like fire And the dark is my only desire I think there's a vampire in me Something underneath I cannot see When the sun goes down, I can breathe Oh, there's a little vampire in me [Bridge] Maybe I'm imagining things Maybe it's the way I'm wired within But I can feel my body change When the daylight fades away And I don't need eternity I just want the sun to let go of me Let the shadows cover everything Feel the electricity under my skin [Final Chorus] I THINK THERE'S A VAMPIRE IN ME CAN'T BEAR THE SUNLIGHT ON MY SKIN Every little ray feels like fire And the dark is my only desire I think there's a vampire in me Something underneath I cannot see When the sun goes down, I can breathe Oh, there's a little vampire in me [Outro] In me, in me A little vampire in me Don't know what I am... But the sunlight isn't made for me. [End]
