Lyrics

Another pint of blood marked for Dracula

Feeling drained and used, like giving blood to Dracula

So long, so long

Expressing farewell or a sense of parting

Who gives nothing up and takes all it wants

Describing someone who is selfish and takes without giving

Until the end of us

Alluding to a relationship's inevitable end


But you're the fire starter

Referring to someone as a troublemaker or source of conflict

You like to make things harder

Highlighting a tendency to complicate things

Yet every dog lovin' teenager

Mentioning the common experience of heartbreak in youth

Knows too well how love can hurt

Acknowledging the painful side of love that young people often understand


If you don't already know,

Emphasizing the uniqueness of the speaker's perspective

You never seen it before like I do

Claiming a distinctive understanding not witnessed by others

So sick of writing you off

Expressing frustration with dismissing someone repeatedly

So sick of writing you off

Reiterating the weariness of rejecting or ignoring someone


If you could see it, you'd believe it

Suggesting that if others could witness something, they would believe in it

And I'd believe in it too

Expressing a desire for mutual belief in a shared experience

Stick with me then, there's always a reason

Encouraging someone to stick with the speaker, implying support

To do what you want to do

Asserting that there is always a reason to pursue one's desires


It's a pointless small thing that means everything to me now

Describing something seemingly insignificant but profoundly meaningful to the speaker

It's a pointless thing

Reiterating the insignificance of a particular thing


If you don't already know,

Repeating the uniqueness of the speaker's perspective

You've never seen it before like I do

Reiterating the distinct understanding not seen by others

So sick of writing you off

Expressing weariness with repeatedly dismissing someone

So sick of writing you off

Reiterating the tiredness of rejecting or ignoring someone


Sick of writing you off

Repetition of being tired of dismissing or rejecting

Sick of writing you off

Repetition of weariness with rejecting someone

Sick of writing you off

Repetition of exhaustion from dismissing someone

Sick of writing you off

Continued fatigue from rejecting or ignoring someone


I cannot do anything at all

Expressing a sense of helplessness or inability to take action

I cannot do anything at all

Reiterating a feeling of incapacity to do anything

I cannot do anything at all

Continued expression of helplessness or lack of agency

I cannot do anything

Reiterating the theme of being unable to take any action
