Too Much 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.

Are you scared this sounds familiar?

What if everybody knew the very trials and temptations

That we put ourselves through?

Now I am no angel but I got nothing to hide

Can you say the same thing for yourself tonight?

What can I keep for myself if I tell you my hell?

What would be left to take to my grave?

And what’s left for you, my lover to save?

What’s left for only you to take?

If I put too much blood on the page

If I put too much blood on the page

And if I just tell the truth are there only lies left for you

If I put too much love on the page?

Now as my eternal witness to the pride and the shame

Are you worried I say too much?

Are you scared they’ll take me away?

Now I am no devil but I’ve got things on my mind

And they're gonna come out and they’re gonna come up time to time

What can I keep for myself if I tell you my hell?

What would be left to take to my grave?

And what’s left for you, my lover to save?

What’s left for only you to take?

If I put too much blood on the page

If I put too much blood on the page

And if I just tell the truth are there only lies left for you

If I put too much blood on the page?

What can I keep for myself if I tell you my hell?

What would be left to take to my grave?

And what’s left for you, my lover to save?

What’s left for only you to take?

If I put too much blood on the page

If I put too much blood on the page

And if I just tell the truth are there only lies left for you

If I put too much blood on the page?

If I put too much blood on the page

If I put too much blood on the page again
