Free ride
Where do you keep the vials
For when you’re all used up
I am a daylight vampire
I need your blood
Derelict conductor and the strings are slack
The teacher faces the wall
Outside the circle still it’s swimming past
Peep show crack in the door
And won’t you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
I left my shadow behind
Calling out into the night
I took a free ride to get me there
To break the barrier and feel the air
I took a free ride to get me there
The last skin is the hardest to shed
The sky doesn’t cry
And the trees don’t groan
The earth is cold and hard
There’s no one home
But for the creatures clawing at my feet
You know I’d be a million miles from here
They got me on my knees
and I can’t break free
They’re trading knives and plates
for zero gravity
And won’t you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
won't you please lift me free
I left my shadow behind
Calling out into the night
I took a free ride to get me there
To break the barrier and feel the air
I took a free ride to get me there
The last skin is the hardest to shed
