[English]

I'm a vampire

Is it okay? Can I suck it?

Saying "I can't take it anymore" is such a bad thing to do

I want to try, I want to throw up a lot, I can definitely still go

The worst and the best, always going back and forth

The sweet fruit of anxiety

No more development, even if jealousy breathes

I just don't need it, it's just noisy

If I'm with someone, that's just a hypothetical

Even if I act tough, I can't go against my feelings

Even if we're apart, I can feel the emotion

If we connect and confirm, I might be able to die

It's fine, it's sad, it's painful

Until I devour all of you, I scream

I'm a vampire

Is it okay? Can I suck it?

Saying "I can't take it anymore" is such a bad thing to do

I want to try, I want to throw up a lot, I can definitely still go

I'm a vampire

I crave you, but then I wither again, it feels bad

If I cry and forget, it's like "Nice to meet you"

I'm a vampire

Please give me love, I can definitely still go

I'm a vampire, first come over here

If I spill all my secret feelings, it's just "exactly" all the time

I can't cut it off, but it's not excess, quietly blocking until morning

I don't want to repeat, being selfish is free

Being greedy, I miss another chance

If it doesn't stop, I want to make it come true

Maybe I'll be crushed if we overlap

It's fine, it's sad, it's painful

Until I devour all of you

It's good, it's fun, it feels nice

Getting addicted until I drown, I scream

I'm a vampire

Is it okay? Can I suck it?

Saying "I can't take it anymore" is such a bad thing to do

I want to try, I want to throw up a lot, I can definitely still go

You're a vampire too

It's fine, you can suck it

Saying "I can't take it anymore," I want you to let me say it

I definitely can't go with anyone else, come on, let me praise you

You're a vampire too

I crave you, but then I wither again, how many times is this now?

In a bubble where I can see the stars

You're a vampire too

Please extend it, I can definitely still go

You're a vampire too, first come over here

I can definitely still go

[Japanese]

あたしヴァンパイア

いいの？吸っちゃっていいの？

「もう無理もう無理」なんて　悪い子だね

試したいな　いっぱいで吐きたい　まだ絶対いけるよ

最低最高　ずっといき来してる

甘くなる不安の果実

No more 発展　嫉妬息をしても

いらないだけ　うるさいだけ

誰かといれば　それはたられば

強がったって気持ちにゃ逆らえない

離れていても　感じてるエモ

繋がって確かめたら死ねるかも

いいもん　悲しいもん　切ないもん

きみのすべてを喰らうまで　絶叫

あたしヴァンパイア

いいの？吸っちゃっていいの？

「もう無理もう無理」なんて　悪い子だね

試したいな　いっぱいで吐きたい　まだ絶対いけるよ

あたしヴァンパイア

求めちゃってまた枯らしちゃってほらやな感じ

泣いて忘れたら「はじめまして」

あたしヴァンパイア

愛情をください　まだ絶対いけるよ

あたしヴァンパイア　まずはこっちおいで

内緒の想い洗いざらい　吐き出したなら「正に」ばかり

割り切れないけど余りじゃない　そっと朝まで通せんぼ

繰り返すヤダ　我儘はタダ

欲張ってまたチャンスを逃すのだ

やまないもしも　叶えたいけど

重なって押しつぶされちゃうのかも

いいもん　悲しいもん　切ないもん

きみのすべてを喰らうまで

いいじゃん　楽しいじゃん　気持ち良いじゃん

溺れるまでが癖になるね　絶叫　

あたしヴァンパイア

いいの？吸っちゃっていいの？

「もう無理もう無理」なんて　悪い子だね

試したいな　いっぱいで吐きたい　まだ絶対いけるよ

きみもヴァンパイア

いいよ　吸っちゃっていいよ

「もう無理もう無理」だって　言わせてほしい

きみ以外では絶対にいけない　ほら絶賛させてよ

きみもヴァンパイア

求めちゃってまた枯らしちゃって今何回目？

星が見えるような泡の中で

きみもヴァンパイア

延長をください　まだ絶対いけるよ

きみもヴァンパイア　まずはこっちおいで

絶対いけるよ
