Blood
Rebuilding Hearts: A Song of Sacrifice and Redemption
Lyrics
Times of trouble always bring out the worst in me
Times of trouble reveal my negative aspects
But I’ve always tried to find the right words to say
Attempting to find the right words in difficult times
I guess they don’t always meet their mark
Efforts may not always be successful
But I’m trying to rebuild this house without the missing parts
Striving to rebuild despite missing elements
So I wrote this song just to say
A song expressing the following sentiments
If I could take myself away from the flood
Desire to escape challenges and bring back lost loved ones
And bring back every person we’ve ever loved and lost
Willing to sacrifice and give everything
Then I would give my blood, give you every little thing I’ve got
Offering blood symbolically to rewrite history
To rewrite your history, coz I’m with you, just don’t forget me
Commitment to be present in history rewriting
When it feels like every days another uphill struggle
Every day feels like a difficult journey
Another mountain to climb, a summit out of sight
Constant challenges, unclear goals
A clear perception born from tired eyes and seeing double
Seeing life through tired eyes and confusion
I’ve gotta step back, won’t be the catalyst
Choosing not to be a catalyst for negativity
Could it be, circumstance has drained my apathy
Wondering if circumstances affect emotions
I hate what I’ve become cos I just don’t know who I am anymore
Disliking the current self and confusion of identity
So I wrote this song just to say
Reiterating the purpose of the song
I know I should have been there
Acknowledging absence in the past
But I’m here for you now
Present commitment to support
If I could take myself away from the flood
Desire to escape challenges and bring back lost loved ones (repeated)
And bring back every person we’ve ever loved and lost
Willing to sacrifice and give everything (repeated)
Then I would give my blood, give you every little thing I’ve got
Offering blood symbolically to rewrite history (repeated)
To rewrite your history, coz I’m with you, just don’t forget me
Commitment to be present in history rewriting (repeated)
If I can find your colours, please let them show, let them bleed onto canvas
Searching for the true colors and emotions
Cos I can’t let them go, just know I’d give my blood, give you every little thing I’ve got
Unwillingness to let go of emotions
To rewrite your history, coz I’m with you, just don’t forget me
Reiterating commitment to rewriting history
When I think back to the start of it all
Reflecting on the beginning of a relationship
When I couldn’t hold back the waves, (you held me close yeah you where my shelter)
Recalling support during challenging times
When the ashes burned through the hole in my heart
Dealing with emotional pain symbolized as ashes
You were the shadow they cast behind me
Acknowledging the support and influence of a loved one
So I wrote this song just to say
Reiterating the purpose of the song (repeated)
