Walking down the midnight avenue

Past the coffee shops and empty stores

I smell the longing in the queue

Taste the heartbreak behind closed doors

Shopping malls become my hunting ground

Where broken dreams are sold for free

In parking lots where souls are found

I feed on their misery

I'm a suburban vampire

Draining hearts in neon light

Not your blood but your desire

I consume what makes you cry

In this concrete maze of sorrow

I steal the tears you'll shed tomorrow

Suburban vampire

Dancing in electric fire

Bus stops hold confessions whispered low

Office workers bleeding overtime

Their exhaustion is the sweetest flow

Their memories become mine

I walk through crowds in designer clothes

Drawing sadness from their weary eyes

Every kiss goodbye, the hunger grows

Every wedding photo slowly dies

I'm a suburban vampire

Draining hearts in neon light

Not your blood but your desire

I consume what makes you cry

In this concrete maze of sorrow

I steal the tears you'll shed tomorrow

Suburban vampire

Dancing in electric fire

No fangs, no cape, no castle walls

Just hunger dressed in modern guise

I haunt the crowded shopping malls

Where the loneliest spirit cries

Dawn breaks over parking meter rows

But I don't turn to dust and bone

I fade into where no one goes

The spaces where you feel alone

Until the night calls out again

And I answer with my hollow heart

Feeding on suburban pain

Where real life tears apart

I'm a suburban vampire

Draining hearts in neon light

Not your blood but your desire

I consume what makes you cry

In this concrete maze of sorrow

I steal the tears you'll shed tomorrow

Suburban vampire

Dancing in electric fire

Suburban vampire...

Forever hungry...

Forever tired...
