Blood Smell

I’ve stayed so low
For so long now
Between the dark around my eyes
And planned out space in the ground
I’ve found out how to push everyone away
But don’t worry
Just crucify me

We’re staring out of broken windows
I can’t have you go
You held my hand all night
Wiped all the tears off of my eyes
I’m not getting better
And I’m just not who I used to be
Oh, judging by the lack of love
And bitter irony

Now I’ll let it all go
But the car wreck shows
Bleeding hearts
And the poet’s cracked skulls
Now I’m not letting go
But the car wreck shows
Bleeding hearts
And the poets cracked skulls

We’re staring out of broken windows
I can’t have you go
You held my hand all night
Wiped all the tears off of my eyes
It’s getting worse now
And I’m just not who I used to be
Oh, judging by the casket wood
And bitter irony

You stayed up all night
The sunrise traced your outline
Your silhouette bathed in my skin
And your warmth in my mind
I’m sorry I haven’t been in control for a long time

My words will be sepulchered
In a lake of fire
And I’ll watch it all fall apart
Like so many times before
But each piece cuts too deep
My words will be sepulchered
In a lake of fire
