Bloodlines
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I'm bred for failure, just tell me once
'Cause I don't feel like I'm meant to just survive
If I have no future, if it's already paying for the past
Just give me the pieces so I can call them mine
I don't care if I leave empty handed
I will learn if I make my own mistakes
I don't care if you don't understand it
I will learn if you let me find my way
Just by killing time, we kill ourselves
(My way)
Just by giving up, we give ourselves away
If I'm born to falter
And I've already fallen from your grace
Just give me the peace to prove that I'm alive
I don't care if I leave empty handed
I will learn if I make my own mistakes
I don't care if you don't understand it
I will learn if you let me find my way
Just by killing time, we kill ourselves
(My way)
Just by giving up, we give ourselves away
If I'm the bastard child of best intentions
If I'm the bitter voice of discontent
If I'm the broken hope of indecision
At least my futures in my hands
If I'm the bastard child of best intentions
If I'm the bitter voice of discontent
If I'm the broken hope of indecision
At least my futures in my hands
If I'm the bastard child of best intentions
If I'm the bitter voice of discontent
If I'm the broken hope of indecision
At least my futures in my hands
(My way)
Just by killing time, we kill ourselves
(My way)
Just by giving up, we give ourselves away
