"Drifting" lyrics

"Drifting"

I want you when the moontime's black
I want you when I'm alone in a crack
I want you when my season turns
Beast in me forever burns
Want you when I gain control
Want you when I'm old

I want you when there's blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes

I need you, I'm ragged and thin
I need you like a new skin
I need you to immortalize me on your wall
I need you baby to call

I need you with blood, my eyes
I'm drifting with blood, my eyes

I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
Blood in my eyes

Promises turn to degree
Promises cast out to sea
I'm drowning with a heavy heart of steel
I'm drowning from not knowing what is real

I'm drowning with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes

Kiss me and shatter the spell
Kiss me 'cause I need to tell
Tell all the secrets and break down the fear
I can't be alone for another year

Along with blood my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes

I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
Blood in my eyes

I miss you with all your chains
I miss you, mockery, it rips and pains

Your boundary lines, your menace is
Your ancient wisdom, goddess says

I miss you with blood in my eyes
I'm drifting with blood in my eyes
