Lyrics

Verse 1
I am two things, one more than what I seem,
I will not be seen in the dark or light,
’Cause I’ll be inside the bar, inside your dream,
I’ve taken my seat in the tomb out of sight.

Chorus
I am a tramp, and a vamp-ire inside your heart,
I am a vamp, and a hotel with the tramps,
Is where I’m at, in a tomb torn apart,
In the room where I haunt through the gaps.

Verse 2
They say my name, but never speak it right,
I’ll light the flame, but hide from your sight,
In every turn, inside the tomb tonight,
I’ll be the shadows, despite the light.

Bridge
I feel the thirst, but dread what I must do,
The tavern’s dark, the hotel’s haunted walls,
I dreamt of life, but those dreams I outgrew,
Now all that’s left are blood-stained, empty halls.

Verse 3

Verse 3
My father’s shadow lingers on behind,
His gloves, once his, are now forever mine,
Each life I take, I feel the cold of glove,
A bitter curse of hate disguised as love.

Each life I take, with every cry
He led the way, but now I wear men’s gloves,
In every life I take, I’m forced to find,
The man I hate, who cursed me with his love.

Chorus
I am a tramp, and a vamp-ire inside your heart,
I am a vamp, and a hotel with the tramps,
Is where I’m at, in a tomb torn apart,
In the room where I haunt through the gaps.

Outro
So say my name, but you’ll not speak it right,
I stand behind the flame, to hide from sight,
In every thought you have, I’ll find my room,
And there be brought, my soul to rot, your love is now my tomb.
