Blood in the Rain
Love's Corrupt Grip: A Haunting Tale of Betrayal and Addiction
Lyrics
Before I met that bitch love was worth the risk
Love was perceived as valuable before encountering a problematic relationship.
So tell me if she knew it'd come this
Questioning if the consequences of the relationship were anticipated.
Not much I could say
Unable to express much due to the impact of the relationship.
Except the ways you made me pay up
Acknowledging the payment, possibly emotional, demanded by the relationship.
Yeah I pour up oh I stay up
Engaging in self-destructive behavior like drinking until vomiting.
Till I throw up
Continuing the destructive behavior until physical consequences arise.
Then I hate you for the ways you made me change
Resentment towards the changes enforced by the relationship.
Not the same as when you said I never change
Contradiction in the partner's statement about not changing.
Whose to blame
Raising the question of responsibility for the relationship's issues.
What remains
Reflection on what is left after the relationship's demise.
Nothing
Emphasizing the emptiness resulting from the breakup.
Just all this blood in the rain
Symbolic mention of the pain and emotional turmoil (blood) caused by the relationship.
All this blood in the rain
Reiteration of the emotional toll depicted as "blood in the rain."
Oh, no
Expressing dismay or disbelief.
Have to replace this empty space
Replacing the emotional void with alcohol.
Everyday with a fifth to the face
Regularly seeking solace in alcohol, possibly to cope with the pain.
Then I remember how you taste
Recalling the memory of the partner despite the negative experiences.
Such a shame
Regret over wasted emotions and efforts in the past relationship.
What a waste
Expressing regret and considering past relationships as futile.
On all these pretty faces, oh
Commenting on the superficiality of previous romantic interests.
But now my mind corrupted
Stating a corrupted mindset and lack of trust.
No I never trusted her
Confirming a lack of trust in the partner.
See my face in the mirror
Disgust at oneself reflected in the mirror, possibly due to the failed relationship.
Every time I'm disgusted
Repetition of self-disgust triggered by the reflection.
Thumbing through my wallet for at least a couple hundred
Searching for money to support a destructive habit.
Funding my addiction I'm a drug loving puppet
Describing oneself as controlled by addiction.
Getting higher to the summit
Escalating the intensity of the drug-induced experience.
Come down plummet
Highlighting the subsequent crash or negative consequences.
Oh
Expression of despair or frustration.
Erase the stain we made
Desire to erase the emotional scars left by the relationship.
Then run away to another place
Seeking escape to a safe place to heal.
Somewhere I could feel safe
Desiring a place of safety, perhaps free from emotional pain.
Like a grave
Comparing the desired safe place to a grave, possibly suggesting a sense of finality.
Oh, no
Expressing dismay or disbelief (repeated).
So what's the point in all this role play
Raising questions about the purpose of playing certain roles in life.
Put my life on display
Displaying life openly, possibly in a vulnerable way.
For y'all to see
Sharing the pain of betrayal with others.
This betrayal in the worst way
Describing the betrayal in an extreme and hurtful manner.
Woe is me
Expressing a sense of sorrow or distress.
Oh
Expressing a sense of being overwhelmed or in despair (repeated).
Used to be all over me
Reflecting on past times when the partner was more affectionate.
Now I only see you in the worst dreams, oh oh
Seeing the partner only in negative or distressing dreams.
And now my mind corrupted
Repetition of a corrupted mindset and lack of trust (repeated).
No I never trusted her
Reiterating a lack of trust in the partner (repeated).
