Bite the hand that played pretend
Time to start spitting blood again

The rivers, flow from lies
Silver scissors sever ties
Bury guilt and let it die
A second chance, a sinners stance
It’s not my final dance
Shattered crowns and broken bones
The blood I spill, over the noose

That's what I'm left with

This is my blood red reckoning
A new beginning in vicious debts
Swallow the bitter medicine
This is my blood red reckoning

Spitting blood again
Spitting blood again
Wash away the shame
Taste of anger, sharp as blades
Spitting blood again
Spitting blood again
Time to start spitting blood again

In the flesh of my wasted youth
The knots are tied
They tell the truth

Silver scissors sever ties
Bury guilt and let it die
A second chance, a sinners stance
It’s not my final dance
The blood I spill, over the noose

Wash away the shame
The only thing that's left is

This is my blood red reckoning
A new beginning in vicious debts
Swallow the bitter medicine
This is my blood red reckoning

Spitting blood again
Spitting blood again
Time to start spitting blood again

I bite the hand that played pretend
Time to start spitting blood again

Now watch me bleed

This is my blood red reckoning
A new beginning in vicious debts
Swallow the bitter medicine
This is my blood red reckoning

Spitting blood again
Spitting blood again
This is my blood red reckoning
Spitting blood again
Spitting blood again
This is my blood red reckoning
