Songs Of Eternity

The blood of life

You bleed to know
that you are alive.
But until all your blood
is drawn, how can you be certain?

When all your blood is tapped
are you dead or more alive?
Is death's promise better
than life or is it just another lie?

When you're gone will you
be able to find peace at last?
Or shall your soul wander
around hopeless and cold?

When your corpse is rid of blood,
will you be the image of perfection?
When you drown in a bloodbath,
will someone even care?

You bleed to know
that you are alive.
But what will happen
to the one that cared?
