Psychic Vampire by Bella Hangnail Lyrics

Well I know I heard you say
It's a long way back to the palisades
I made up my mind and I got in close
With a hand at your back and a knife at your throat
I cut up your cards after I sucked 'em dry
Slump down and get high
Light out towards the state line
With the good sense to spend recklessly
And the gentleness of a hungry vampire bat

It's time I move on from this place
Dont expect I'll be back here
Theres nothing in the world that I want but a fresh coat of paint
(not too picky 'bout the lacquer)
Just somethin' for the scratches and dents
Can you make 'em lay low a little better?

Slept upside down under a tree
With the marble I took from a grave in New Orleans
I was dreamin of a score, yeah I wanted revenge
Still woke up pockets touchin in the end
Down on Hot Springs road (i just learned to ignore the taste of sulfur in the air)
Life's a game of change anyway and I'm rigging the deck in my favor again
The engine goes out on a dead crossroads with no one around
My whole life I never been satisfied
Why am I so wrong for filling my heart with something that's not gonna leave me?
