Eclipse Of My Soul: A journey through melody and verse

Bloodstain

(Verse 1)

Woke up in the morning, saw your picture frame,

Face like an angel, but love's a wicked game.

Tears on the letters you left on my nightstand,

Promises broken, like castles made of sand.

(Pre-Chorus)

You said we'd be forever, but forever's just a lie,

Now I'm picking up the pieces, wondering why.

(Chorus)

Bloodstain on my heart, where you used to be,

Every beat's a reminder of your memory.

You carved your name deep, but you didn't stay,

Now I'm left with this bloodstain, and it won't fade away.

(Verse 2)

Moonlight on the pavement, where we used to walk,

Echoes of your laughter, haunting every block.

Tried to shut your ghost out, but the shadows cling,

Every whispered secret, now a bitter sting.

(Pre-Chorus)

You said we'd be forever, but forever's just a lie,

Now I'm picking up the pieces, wondering why.

(Chorus)

Bloodstain on my heart, where you used to be,

Every beat's a reminder of your memory.

You carved your name deep, but you didn't stay,

Now I'm left with this bloodstain, and it won't fade away.

(Bridge)

I'm dancing in the dark, with the scars you left behind,

Every step a reminder, of a love that wasn't kind.

Trying to find the light, but it's lost inside the pain,

Caught between the lines of what we lost and what remains.

(Chorus)

Bloodstain on my heart, where you used to be,

Every beat's a reminder of your memory.

You carved your name deep, but you didn't stay,

Now I'm left with this bloodstain, and it won't fade away.

(Outro)

But I see it now, the cracks in the frame,

The way you left me, covered in shame.

Every word you said, a calculated game,

And I'm standing here, with a bloodstain.

(Ending Phrase)

Now I'm left with this bloodstain, and it won't fade away,

No, it won't fade away.

You held the blade, and I took the fall,

A love so deep, it made me crawl.

Backstory: The story behind this song is truly astonishing and interesting because the title "Bloodstain" came in my head while I was fast asleep one night. The next morning I kept thinking of how to start this song and lyrics. Then I started jamming to TTPD and when I listened to "So Long London" I mumbled the chorus. Then an idea came I started writing the song. Also my other favorites will be Fortnight, Down Bad, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart, Florida and The Alchemy. I love the entire album and songs.
