Adrianne Lenker - Vampire Empire
Watching TV tired, bleeding on the bed
The milk has just expired, all the leaves are dead
I'm not quiet, you've been quiet, just receiving what you said
Reeling, feeding, feeling filled by everything you fed
I see you as you see yourself through all the books you read
Overwhelmed with guilt and realizing the disease
★ Chorus ★
You give me chills, I've had it with the drills
I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
I am empty 'til she fills, alive until she kills
In hеr vampire empire, I'm thе fish and she's my gills
★ Post-Chorus ★
Falling, yeah
Falling, yeah
★ Verse 2 ★
I see you there rejecting all your earthly power
Protecting and dissecting until you've emptied every hour
We jump into the pond, then we come under the shower
You lay upon my pillow and you open like a flower
I wanted to see you naked, I wanted to hear you scream
Wanted to kiss your skin and your everything
I wanted to be your woman and I wanted to be your man
I wanted to be the one that you could understand
★ Chorus ★
You give me chills, I've had it with the drills
I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
I am empty 'til she fills, alive until she kills
In her vampire empire, I'm the fish and she's my gills
★ Post-Chorus ★
Falling, yeah
Falling, yeah
★ Verse 3 ★
I walked into your dagger for the last time in a row
It's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow
You can't seem to hold me here, can't seem to let me go
So I can't find surrender, can't keep control
You turn me inside out and then you want the outside in
You spin me all around and then you ask me not to spin
You say you wanna be alone and you want children
You wanna be with me, you wanna be with him
★ Chorus ★
You give me chills, I've had it with the drills
I am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
I am empty 'til she fills, alive until she kills
In her vampire empire, I'm the fish and she's my gills
★ Post-Chorus ★
Falling, yeah
Falling, yeah

Adrianne Lenker - the music
Tried to tell you, seems to fall through Ali I'm sorry I made you feel sad Words come to me, some renew me None of them ever remake what we had We gave it all
Adrianne Lenker - feel it all
What it means for you to be here while the world is freaking out To make a pot of coffee and let me cry it out So much time, so much time I’ve been feeling sad like pieces are
Adrianne Lenker - fangs lungs ankles
So much easier said than done I see you see me lie in front of everyone You come to me like the setting sun You warm me with your light and then you leave when you're done On
Adrianne Lenker - i won't let go of your hand
Seems we met just as the world was lost Let's forgive time, here's a coin to toss We'll take our chances, we can take the loss Knowing no sweetness comes without a cost
Adrianne Lenker - relief
So much pulling you away You seem so much older The weight of the way it is today The weight of the world on your shoulders I don’t want you to have to lift This burden
Adrianne Lenker - Sweeter skin / I do love you
Wait until the last moment No thanks, I wanna live right now It's alive anyway, I'm just ridin' (writin'?) on it Looking all around Some words are so
Adrianne Lenker - Bright Future
Summer rain falling Wind through the eye of the tunnel What light gives you What light takes you on All I see is a bright All I see is a bright All I see is a
Adrianne Lenker - anything
{Verse 1} Staring down the barrel of the hot sun Shining with the sheen of a shotgun Carol has a little if we need some Joy has a ride if we wanna come
Adrianne Lenker - Red leaves, falling
{Verse 1} Back in the saddle Sleeps the morning dove Frozen meadow Yellow moon above {Chorus} Red leaves falling through the light Through
Adrianne Lenker - Change
Change, like the wind, like the water, like skin Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly Would you live forever and never die While everything around passes?
