MASTODON
"A Vampire's Demeanor"

[Intro: Troy Sanders]
Running circles
All which used to be strong
And the penalty which you received
Must be paid back

[Verse 1: Troy Sanders]
Undermine, crossing lines, all you wanted
Dancing in denial
Celebrate all the praise, so iconic
Follow me where I go
Old guard is gone
Burn this world down

[Verse 2: Troy Sanders]
Pulling your pride out
Only when it suits you best
Bruised and broken
Bold and brazen with no shame
Fallen in curses
A temporary escape
I saw you crumble like an avalanche
Screaming at the sky

[Verse 3: Troy Sanders]
Our better days thrown away, not unwanted
Beauty turned disaster
Now we take brand new day, so ironic
Fortune turning dire
Old guard is gone
A new day rising

[Bridge: Troy Sanders]
I'm still dreaming of what we shared
Can you, can you take me there?
Can you take us there?

[Guitar Solo: Nick Johnston]

[Outro: Troy Sanders]
Running circles
All which used to be strong
Burn this world down
Burn this world down
