Behind The Blood
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.
Rivers rush, behind the blood
The cinder skies come alive with this drop of sunset
How far can we go?
Along the elusive flood
I've been waiting all of my life to be with you
Such a pale spark
Such a long wait before you would let me know
Before you would bless me with your thunder
The ground shakes
It carries the weight of the letting go
I can feel you tear me asunder, whoa!
My love, I can feel you push and give way to drowning
I can feel you pierce my heart
Hammers thrust within the cells
You're a torch to the temple of depression
Saturnalian curse, these are my heaving words
I will do it all over again to be with you
Motionless now
Venin is in the blood
You're a preacher
Without a cross
Give me some trouble
Get me some trouble in
I can't wait
I can't wait again
I can't wait again, no!
Such a pale spark
Such a long wait before you would let me know
Before you would bless me with your thunder
The ground shakes
It carries the weight of the letting go
I can feel you tear me asunder, whoa!
My love, I can feel you push and give way to drowning
I can feel you pierce my heart
