Vampires will Never Hurt You Lyrics

And if they get me and the sun
Goes down into the ground
And if they get me
Take this spike to my heart and

And if they get me and the sun
Goes down
And if they get me
Take this spike and

You put the spike in my heart

And if the...

   Hey I think it's about blow jobs to an extent. LMAO. Anyway, the one girl who said Gerard said vampires don't exist. I would love to hear that interview.

   This song is talking about how dead the society is and how he won't let the society hurt the one he loves or anyone else,"ill never let them hurt you", and also how the society has no feelings they just want money.

   "Yeah, obviously we use vampires as a metaphor for something else, something deeper than just the supernatural. But there's just something about the bloodsucking walking dead, that can say so much to people. There are really so many people trying to get control over you on a daily basis and steal your soul in some way, take a part of you..." - Gerard Way
   
   I believe that says it all.

   I think it's about someone 'they' are trying to get, I'm not sure who 'they' it could be something unreal like a werewolf for all I know. It could mean a lot of different things anyway, and he'd prefer to be killed by the person he's asking than to be caught by whoever it is. 'And if they get me take this spike and
   You put the spike in my heart 'thats stands out to me the way he says YOU put the spike in my heart.
   
   It's also about being with someone 'And if the sun comes up will it tear the skin right off our bones/And then as razor sharp white teeth rip out our necks '
   and maybe dying with someone but trying to protect someone 'I'll never let them, I'll never let them/I'll never let them hurt you not tonight' and about being young 'Struck down, before our prime '
   
   And asking someone if they could kill him 'Can you stake my heart?'

   Gerard said that the song is about CD people and having nothing to do with you except drrink with you and drag you down and other bullshit like that. (The guys ARE NOT vampires and they even said that vampires don't exist) Sorry if that breaks your heart, but you need to wise up, dude. (another thing Gerard said on WSOU radio a few years ago)

   I think this song is about protecting someone and not letting anyone hurt them. The vampires mean all the mean people in the world.

    Gerard said himself that this song is a metaphor for being in the "singles scene". Going to night clubs and one night stands and such, trying to find something your looking for before the sun comes up.

    This song is about a girl or a good friend.when Gerad sings "When they..", I wonder who is "they?". The first impresion I get is that "they" are the police.Just an impulse thought.
    
    When the sun comes up may be when the inevitable happens, like getting caught or being in an accident,due to being in trouble,like a car chase.Something that isn't reversable The lyrics "Where they can pump this venom gaping hole
    And you must keep your soul like a secret in your throat," may imply, for example, if there was an accident that the girl/good friend will keep how it happened a secret.
    
    What happened isn't hinted at all in the song. Gerad is trying to protect whomever the event is about
    "I'll never let them, I'll never let them
    I'll never let them hurt you now tonight
    I'll never let them, I can't forget them
    I'll never let them hurt you, I promise"

    It's just completely about being a vampire and how awesome it is.
