Blood Runs
Unveiling Shadows: Blood Runs Deep in Deceitful Echoes
Lyrics
You say speak, and I spill
You want me to speak, and I reveal my thoughts
You say stop, I stay still
You instruct me to stop, and I remain motionless
New lines, I trace in your head
I create new impressions or thoughts in your mind
Rue proves that she's strong
Rue, a character, demonstrates strength to correct mistakes
To undo what went wrong
To undo what has gone wrong
I lie as you lie on my chest
I deceive while you lie on my chest
And as I'm facing your back it'll need just one
Facing your back, one action is needed
I bring all my daggers but I use none
I bring weapons but don't use them
It's the secret I keep that keeps me up
A hidden truth occupies my thoughts
To blame all the evil in my blood
I attribute all the wrongdoing to my blood
I hold no mystery
I have no secrets or enigma
It's what I say as you believe
My words shape your belief
I play my cards of deceit
I employ strategies of deception
I could swim, or drown more
I have choices - to swim or suffer
You pick your poison or your cure
You can choose poison or remedy
And I could die but I don't deserve that kind of peace
I may die, but peace isn't deserved
And I know that you know just what I mean
You understand my thoughts
So at what point of knowing are you just humoring me
Are you just pretending to understand?
When I say that I'll do anything for you
I claim I'll do anything for you
Well that means that you know you could do anything to me
Implies reciprocation, you can do anything to me
Oh it burns inside
A burning sensation within
In ashes and stains
In the remnants and marks of your name
Of your name
Encouraging departure
So go
Departure is advised
And when smoke unwinds
When the confusion clears
Take what you find
Take what you discover
But leave the blame
But don't blame me
I'm at a cross-road between
Caught between morality and convenience
What is right and what's easy
Facing a dilemma once again
I find myself in this spot yet again
Strangers in your thoughts, easily discarded
Paint me a stranger in your head
Expel me before bedtime
Spit me out before you go to bed
These metaphors are futile
Can't you see these metaphors
Metaphors are ineffective
Are all in vain
Past experiences yield no results
Past the light post by the sea
Symbolic location, burying memories
In the forest out of sight
In the concealed parts of nature
I buried memories, now they grow overnight
I buried memories, but they resurface
Lying here as I bleed from wounds on each side
Lying down, suffering from wounds
Nobody's fault
No one to blame
My scene, my crime
My scenario, my wrongdoing
Oh it burns my soul
Internal anguish
I'm forced to see it through
Compelled to endure
For the eyes are last to go
Even as the eyes lose their vision
And when the blood runs cold
When life drains away
And dries the aching heart
Leaving a desolate heart
When shame plays its part
Shame plays a role
And I'm longer gone
I've been absent for a long time
Than I was around
Longer absent than present
Then you should come home
Suggesting a return home
I'll pack all my mistakes
Packing errors and faults
Leave everything for you
Abandoning everything for you
But I'll take the blame
Accepting responsibility
