Reading the lyrics again, it might be talking about fame, and trends using the metaphor of a vampire "sucking away people's lives", "leading them blind", like how people tend to blindly follow celebrities and shape their whole lives around them. Until the next big thing comes along and they "leave you no mind", or stop caring about trends and celebrities that are no longer in the limelight. And the celebs' lives depend on the public's interest to keep them making money and whatnot.
That's just my interpretation, I don't know if Chuck Mosley's lyrics were that deep or whatnot. I know Mike Patton said when he (Mike, not Chuck) wrote lyrics he just kind of threw words together that sort of stuck to a theme, but didn't actually have a concrete meaning in the grand scheme of things. I personally believe that Chuck was a little deeper with his lyrics, but I could be wrong. I know that some people think Chuck is/was a hack, but I personally think that there was a little bit more going on (lyrically, I mean) in Chuck's head. (R.I.P.)
@no1careshuiam I totally agree with you. Chuck Mosley was not a hack. He had so much to say but his life was just cut too short. Mike Patton in all honesty makes my skin crawl. He has an amazing voice but I can’t stand him and when I hear him sing Chuck’s songs I get so angry.
