Day 10 - Emotional Vampires

Original song
Emotional Vampires
Everyone you meet
They're just a means to an end
Everyone you know
They're just stepping stones, man
They're not your friends
That love you found, you knew it couldn't last
It just got devoured by
The demons of your past
And that heart you hold, it's not your own
You stole it a long time ago
Back when yours turned to stone
Now the spark in your heart has died
Snuffed out by all of your lies
The spark in your heart has died
Snuffed out by all of your lies
And the way you act, it's all just pretend
You never give anything
Without wanting something back
Everybody just a means to an end
And that face you wear, well it is not yours
You stole it from a magazine,
Some TV dream, the silver screen
One day when you got bored
Now the light in your eyes has died
Snuffed out by all of your lies
The light in your eyes has died
Killed by all of your lies
Now this love you've found
You better keep it close
You never know when it'll be
Time for you to go
Grab your bag and head for the coast
And this heart you hold
You better hold it tight
Shit hits the fan and here comes the Man
Grab your gun and run into the night
Now the spark in your heart has died
Snuffed out by all of your lies
Yes the light in your eyes has died
It's been killed by all of your lies
Everyone you meet
They're just emotional vampires
Everyone you know
They're just narcissists and big fat liars
Just con artists and big fat liars
Big fat liars, big fat liars
Emotional vampires, we're all just
Emotional vampires, we're all just
Big fat liars, just big fat liars
