"Blood" lyrics
"Blood"
Was there once something so pure
That left me whole and precious?
But now, broken, wondering
Why this new ingredient?
Everything I crave, I become
Everything I love, forgotten
Everything I loathe, I become
Is that what happens when you reach the bottom?
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
There's an ugly crowd inside me
They specialize in violation
Once they numbered only a handful
Grew out of the ashes of what we had good
There'll be another awkward scene tonight
As we choose to ignore the obvious
Quickly averting our eyes
When we see what there is left of us
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
Our love hangs here beside us
From its feet, it's twitching desperate
It used to splash your white boots
Now they're matted and congealed
There'll be another ugly scene tonight
As we refuse to accept the obvious
We panic and jump up and down
Trying to suck those last breaths
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
Where does the blood go?
It runs away from broken love
