Emotional Vampires
You're calling me up -- it's 10 a.m.
Why did I pick up again?
Your relationship's about to end -- shocking
It's feeling like an interview
You never ask, "How are you?"
Doing my nails, phone on mute -- you're still talking
I know it's kind of harsh
But I'm tired of sparing my feelings
And handing you my heart
When I'm the one who's bleeding
It's 'bout time that I --
Clean out the lovers, and the liars, and the friends
Who just take, take, take when I'm giving to no end
Gotta cut out the haters 'til the fakers test their luck
They just take, take, take
Emotional Vampires suck!
Emotional Vampires SUCK!
I gotta keep a little for my sanity, clarity
Suddenly -- gone from me
You drain me like a battery... you do
All your problems -- present tense
Claiming you're so innocent
Don't you see, the common thread is you?
You act like you're so smart
You're a magnet to the drama
Tell someone who cares
Here's a quarter, call your mama
It's 'bout time that I --
Clean out the lovers, and the liars, and the friends
Who just take, take, take when I'm giving to no end
I'm gonna cancel, clear, delete
Anyone who throws a pity party
Who never makes a move
But always complains they're stuck
Emotional Vampires suck!
Emotional Vampires SUCK!
My time -- you're taking, you're taking it all
My dime -- Yeah, you're taking, you're taking it all
My shine -- You're taking, you're taking it all
You're taking, you're taking it all
(my time)
I should keep a little for myself (my dime)
I should keep a little for myself (my shine)
I should keep a little for myself
It's 'bout time that I --
Clean out the lovers, and the liars, and the friends
Who just take, take, take when I'm giving to no end
I'm gonna cancel, clear, delete
Anyone who throws a pity party
Who never makes a move
But always complains they're stuck
Emotional Vampires suck!
My time -- You're taking, you're taking it all
My dime -- You're taking, you're taking it all
My shine -- You're taking, you're taking it all
You're taking, you're taking it all
(my time) Gotta keep a little for myself
(my dime) Gotta keep a little for myself
(my shine) Gotta keep a little for myself
I gotta keep a little for myself
Why did I pick up again?
