Der arme Vampir

de Friedrich Hollaender

I used to think the family was a place to rest
A shelter of peace where you always felt blessed
To love, to care, give your hand without a fee
Stand together when the storm's all you see

But now I see it was all just pretend
And when I needed you, you chose not to lend
I'm not here to beg, the fault's not mine
You turned away first, I just drew the line

So keep this clear, I already know
When life hits back, I won't show
And in that future I clearly see
You'll call my name but not hear from me

Your weakness, letting anyone in
Letting small minds pull you down again
I warned you, they only knew how to take
You gave them your soul, now feel the break

That's emotional dependence and it's dangerous, a curse
Your silence became absence, now see who's leaving you first
Your downfall is what you chose to feed
When you refused the ones who believed

The breadcrumb you tossed was meant to be
For the hands that once helped you breathe
You turned away and now you're alone
Lost from the hearts that once called you home

You wrapped me in promises that never arrived
Left me in pieces when I barely survived
One day you'll see what you pushed away
Was the hand that helped you through each day

You fell for pride, got lost in the game
Thought you were king but forgot your name
And that day will come I look and say
Nice to meet you, I'm the future by the way

Now face the hole that you carved out cold
Try finding love where you never sowed

Let's see what's left now that it's done
Where's your kingdom, where's your son
Can't find it, huh? You're drowning in pain
Ruler of ruins, nothing to gain
And I'll repeat, call me future, the one you meet
I walked away with ice in my veins
And the ones who loved you are gone with the rain
Look in the mirror, start your count, the bills due
Pays the full amount, you promised things that never came
You turned your back and now take the blame
What you tossed aside was real and whole
Now you search for love in an empty soul

This isn't hate, this is just truth
The hell you built is now your roof
And I'll be there to watch you recall
Every moment you made me feel small

The shame one rose, the proud one fell
You trusted your demons, now live in their hell

You wrapped me in promises that never arrived
Left me in pieces when I barely survived
One day you'll see what you pushed away
Was the hand that helped you through each day

You fell for pride, got lost in the game
Thought you were king, but forgot your name
And that day will come, I'll look and say
Nice to meet you, I'm the future by the way

Now face the hole that you carved out cold
Try finding love where you never sowed

Hakuna Matata, remember that song
We sang it like love could never go wrong
Today I'm fine, no problems to name
And you're still trapped in your own shame
