Eyes of ink
Hair of gold
Lips like rubies

Cuts like paint
Blood like corn syrup
Death like sleep

Why is there...
There is always...
Blood, blood, blood

I give them
Gallons of the
Stuff, I give
Them all that
They can drink
It'll never be
Enough

I gave them
Blood
Blood
Blood

Why is there...
There is always...
Blood, blood, blood

And then I
Fade

Blood
