"Blood In The Wine" lyrics

"Blood In The Wine"

I was given a heart
Before I was given a mind
A thirst for pleasure and war
A hunger we keep inside
We fell from sky with grace
And life gave us a sweeter taste
You can drink, you can feast
There's beauty in your beast

The flesh in the fruit and the blood in the wine

Come and feel alive, lover
Come and feel the love, like a sinner
Shout it louder
Shout it for the ones who could never say
"I won't feel ashamed, mother"
"Can you break the chains off her?"
Shout it louder, not a sinner, she's a lover

I was given a name
Before I was given blood
Like you were given your faith
Before there was made a God
Young rivers in your hands
And grass burning in promised lands
You can drink, you can feast
There's beauty in your beast

The flesh in the fruit and the blood in the wine

Come and feel alive, lover
Come and feel the love, like a sinner
Shout it louder
Shout it for the ones who could never say
"I won't feel ashamed, mother"
"Can you break the chains off her?"
Shout it louder, not a sinner, she's a lover

Come and feel alive
Come and feel the love
Shout it louder
Shout it for the ones who could never say (Louder)
"I won't feel ashamed, mother"
"Can you break the chains off her?"
Shout it louder, not a sinner, she's a lover

Come and feel alive, lover
Come and feel the love, like a sinner
Shout it louder
Shout it for the ones who could never say
"I won't feel ashamed, mother"
"Can you break the chains off her?"
Shout it louder, not a sinner, she's a lover

AURORA told Apple Music about "Blood In The Wine", "The symbolism in it is very inspired by religious terms. I get a lot of inspiration from faith because it's so complex. This song is about the whole complexity in this relationship. I think it's important for me that people find their own meaning in this song, but I would love people to feel strengthened by it."
