lyrics

Every night when I crawl out of my grave
Looking for someone to meet, some way that we’ll misbehave
Every night when I go out on the prowl
And then I fly through the night with the bats and the owls
Every time I meet somebody, I think you might be the one
I’ve been on my own for too long
When I pull them closer to me

Bloody sunrise comes again leaves me hungry and alone, every time
Bloody sunrise comes again and I’m nowhere to be found, every time
And you’re a memory and gone, something else that I can blame on bloody sunrise

Every night I put on my smartest threads
And I go into the town and I don’t even look dead
Every night I smile and I say ‘hi’
And no one ever smiles back and if I could I’d just die
But when I’m lucky I do get lucky and I think you might be the one
Even though the time is flying when it gets to the time of dying

Bloody sunrise comes again leaves me hungry and alone, every time
Bloody sunrise comes again and I’m nowhere to be found, every time
And you’re a memory and gone, something else that I can blame on bloody sunrise
And you’re a memory and gone, something else that I can blame on bloody sunrise
