i definitely agree with leonperkin's and artformsnow's takes, but i like to apply the lyrics in another way. :)
i may be misconstruing this to my current situation, but it seems to me like this is the epitomy of the anti-establishment/stereotype song.
"hold on to your genre, your genre's got a hold on you"
the line "there's a promise in the backroom/see it written in the bathroom" seems to be mocking the sexuality of teenagers today - or more just, its increasing pressure.
we do magic tricks (rabbits, cards) to perform for others, instead of just being ourselves.
the bit "together, forever/the pity, the pleasure" are the strongest lyrics to me in the song.
he's looking at all this and he wants to have none of it. he doesn't want to be "established", doesn't want to be apart of the sexuality, the magic tricks.. he just wants to be himself.
still kind of hazy on the vampire imagery.. uh.. hahaha!
