This song details the apathy that comes with a relationship that you are not invested in. The lyrical trope of scary imagery (criminals wearing masks, vampires sinking their teeth in) contribute to the feeling of deceiving or inflicting pain in a one-sided relationship.

Vampire Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cold weather shivers like a knife in the back tonight
The things you claim that you knew had taken flight
A tipsy remedy while something's causing strife
Familiar echoes warn from a past life
You got ambition, baby I can admire that
You say you love me when there’s nobody lovin' back
Call me a criminal, I'm wearing the mask tonight
Familiar echoes scream from a past life
[Pre-Chorus]
You want me to go back to your room
Well, lie to me, I’ll lie to you
I think the jig will be up soon
But can it wait 'til the morning?
[Chorus]
Can it wait 'til the morning?
Can it?
[Verse 2]
It got so bloody like the moon on Friday night
I sunk my teeth in so deep but you just sigh
Can't get off? Well babe, neither can I
Familiar echoes bored from the past life
[Pre-Chorus]
You want me to go back to your room
Well lie to me, I'll lie to you
I think the jig will be up soon
But can it wait 'til the morning?
[Chorus]
Can it wait 'til the morning?
Can it?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Can it wait 'til the morning?
Can it?
Can it wait ’til the morning?
Can it?
Vampire Q&A
Who wrote Vampire's ?
Vampire was written by Lupin.
What did Lupin say about "Vampire"?
I was fully under the impression that I was dying when I wrote this – I had gotten a CT scan a couple weeks before that revealed a mass in my brain, which led me to believe that I had brain cancer or some form of Parkinson’s.
