When the moon flips on and streetlights glow,
We crawl out laughing, ready to go,
Velvet boots on the midnight floor,
Knocking on the club like a coffin door,
Red-rimmed eyes but we feel so alive,
Counting every beat just to prove we thrive,
While the city yawns and the daylight fades,
We’re sharpening our smiles in the purple haze.
We dance all night, till the sky turns red,
Spin like ghosts till the sun lifts its head,
Sleep all day in a velvet dream,
Living on rhythm and caffeine and gleam,
We dance all night, we don’t need to fight it,
Love the dark, yeah we’re born inside it,
Party vampires, wild and free,
This is the life that we’re meant to live.
Mirrorball moons in a sultry room,
Perfume and sweat and a hint of doom,
Heartbeats thump like a bass-drum spell,
Ringing so loud like a silver bell,
Lipstick smiles and a dangerous laugh,
Every kiss is a blood-red draft,
We toast to forever with clear glass cups,
Till the morning tries to call our bluffs.
We dance all night, till the sky turns red,
Spin like ghosts till the sun lifts its head,
Sleep all day in a velvet dream,
Living on rhythm and caffeine and gleam,
We dance all night, we don’t need to fight it,
Love the dark, yeah we’re born inside it,
Party vampires, wild and free,
This is the life that we’re meant to live.
When the sunrise knocks, we pull the shade,
Laughing at the mess that the night has made,
Glitter on skin like a battle scar,
Every wild wish still where we are,
While the world runs nine to five in a line,
We’re still lost in a different kind of time,
Dreaming in shadows, wrapped in delight,
Waiting to wake for another night.
We dance all night, till the sky turns red,
Spin like ghosts till the sun lifts its head,
Sleep all day in a velvet dream,
Living on rhythm and caffeine and gleam,
We dance all night, we don’t need to fight it,
Love the dark, yeah we’re born inside it,
Party vampires, wild and free,
This is the life that we’re meant to live.
