"Blood In The River" lyrics

You see the pain when I'm talking, feel
My eyes move to the ground
Sayin' I'm fine and I'm happy, baby I'm spiraling down
You ask if I'm still angry, but you know how I been
Up on the same old story, you like to play pretend

(Hold my breath)
Let the silence do the talkin' for me
(Underneath)
Every night it's gettin' harder to breathe
You say, "it's alright, it's alright,"
But your voice shakes
It's such a shame that you
Crossed me in the first place

Blood in the river, runnin' through us
Red in the water, every time we touch
We wade a little deeper like it won't pull us under
But there's blood in the river, blood in the river

Blood in the river, blood in the river

Old stain on the surface that the water can't wash
New pain wasn't worth it
Now I'm seeing what it cost
I tried to rinse you off
But the bleeding never stops
The cut runs deeper
When the truth gets lost

(Look away)
Every truth is like a cut on your skin
(Too afraid)
To admit we let the floodwaters in
Say, "it's alright, it's alright,"
But your voice shakes
It's such a shame that you
Crossed me in the first place

Blood in the river, runnin' through us
Red in the water, every time we touch
We wade a little deeper like it won't pull us under
But there's blood in the river, blood in the river

If we don't move, will it still drag us down?
If we let go, do we both wash out?
I don't wanna be the one to pull you under
There's blood in the river, blood in the river

Blood in the river, runnin' through us
Red in the water, every time we touch
We wade a little deeper like it won't pull us under
But there's blood in the river, blood in the river

Blood in the river
Blood in the river, blood in the river
Can't help from goin' under
Blood in the river, blood in the river
