Nosferatu Lyrics

It's a lonely life

Gotta get cozy cuz I can't die easily

Them all told me I was evil but see I just need different things and easy

I'm gentle and nifty

Hardly killed since 1853

Put em to sleep 

I target creeps and the opulent rich usually 

It's looked down upon in society 

But the crowd never see me 

and my victims are only out a healthy meal

Never felt pain and unaware my stealthy deeds

I just gotta quell the beast cuz I'm afraid of dying just like this human 

Holding up his crucifix telling me to be gone

He's looking good for me to eat off

Am I selfish?

And forget a relationship if they ever find out what you do at night

You'd think a real friend or love would rather that you stay alive

I mean even after explaining to them that I don't kill anybody

They still looking at me like I'm a doped up Ted bundy fucking never understand

Like I said

It's a lonely life

Shit feels pretty hopeless when nobody knows you right 

Who's got a sword to bite?

Can't open up so its mostly for one night 

I don't throw the dice calculate my roll and sleight

Cold and in the moment I am Holy diver

Hello behind you

I'm nothing like your tv Nosferatu 

Dracula, Orlok, motherfucker Martin

They need to relax like Mugatu

You really only need a couple pints don't be so reckless 

I don't go for the neck

I know it's a stretch

But All I ask is don't stone me yet

Sometimes I'll case the hospital and just steal blood

Even though the taste gets bland after being refrigerated for months 

And I don't steal rare blood types

I swear I'm not a bad vampire

...

I died when I was 30

Met the devil in the foyer of the courts of inquisition 

The pontiff talked of garlic, crosses, stake through the heart

And that last one the only part he had right

I tried to tell him

But he wouldn't listen 

You can see his act in my condemnation

As I walk to the stake 

An ancient man sprung from an angry crowd and sunk his teeth in me silently

Instantly the room drained of people and My souls alone with the devil

Three days later I arise from my poorly buried corpse

Hunted the crooked taxman that steal from the poor

And drank him up, delicious

Bury the utensils and dishes

Not a witness would have given notice

And I spent the next 300 years 

draining the earth of its rotted grey matter and here's

What set me apart I drove a stake through the heart of every crook I ever indulged myself in because the world don't need another Dracula

Trust me, he was mad as legion 

So evil that God warned Adam in Eden 

So evil the archangels tired of the specter 

And banished his soul to a far away planet

But anyways

I've been fighting wickedness for nearly 500 years 

And everybody still scared of me, like I want your peers

I helped humanity like the Strait of Magellan

And I finally got that fucker Rockefeller
