From the recording The Benefit of Doubt
Lyrics
I met a vampire deep in the woods
She had desires, dangerous goods
She sang a song only the moonlight could hear
She said I must be lost to even be there
Or have some slow disease causes me not to care
Or maybe just sadly unaware of the moon
And we danced without direction
It gave illusion we were free
With moonlight just reflection
Truth is hard to see
She knew I had the slow disease
It takes its time and eats from the inside
She said, someday soon you'll be in the moonlight too
She was young and pale, did what she could
She'd smile and say, even for me your blood is no good
She'd sit just gently next to me like an old friend would
And we danced without direction
It gave illusion we were free
With moonlight just reflection
The truth is hard to see
All I know, all I know
The body can get so thin
And a moonlight stranger
She'll sit just gently
This vampire was kind to me
She shared her time and this melody
Singing, someday soon, you'll be in the moonlight too
We still dance without direction
It gives illusion we are free
With moonlight just reflection
The truth is hard to see
There's a song only the moonlight can hear
