Voxtrot - Blood Red Blood lyrics
Lonely boy, where do we go I'm stuck believing in the other side Stuck on my own Run fast, you're dreaming No place to hide Safety in things I'm dumb for thinking 'Cuz a piece of plastic Is nothing more than a piece of plastic Empty streets under my feet How did we get so far? From the general beat Across that great Held fast together in the dying day Oh you are swimming inside the magic hour Oh and when you wet your skin You can s** up all you need to know You can s** up all you need to know, oh oh Picture me, how will you picture me when I am dead? All fast and free, building a fantasy with blocks in my head A legacy, do these things dissipate in the years unread? I've got a pain just like a knife, and the time has left me Oh I'm just trying to do my best I'm not afraid of life, I'm afraid of d**h Build my love in the things I say You've gotta lift your face to the breaking day Oh I'm just trying to do my best I'm not afraid of life, I'm afraid of d**h Build my love in the things I say You've gotta lift your face to the breaking day So I ran and I jumped and I flew 'til I came to the center of the Earth so cold And the wind picked me up and took me straight into the belly of the fears I hold And I ran and I ran and I ran and I ran And then I came right back Threw my arms around you You were dressed in black I'm so glad I found you For you burned my stuff Objects all around me Do we outlast things Memories astound me Do we fade like this Keep your body down to the ground The flesh and the soil that we love so much I always wanted to return Return to the body where I was born I always wanted to return And I ran and I ran and I ran So far I'm just trying to do my best I'm not afraid of life, I'm afraid of d**h Build my love in the things I say You've gotta lift your face to the breaking day And I'm just trying to do my best I'm not afraid of life, I'm afraid of d**h Build my love in the things i say You've gotta lift your face to the breaking day Because in time it leaves you It leaves you like blood, red blood It leaves you like blood, red blood It leaves you like blood, red blood It leaves you like blood, red blood
