Why Does The Blood Flow?

Lyrics I wrote for a friends music

Verse 1

 

         Since you went into exile

Hiding from my arms

Time has become a razor blade

Scarring me soul

Till all that remains

Is a dream torn to shreds.

 

Chorus

 

         Why does the blood flow

When the heart has lost

A reason to beat?

Why does the blood seep

When the heart feels like

It is six feet deep?

 

Verse 2

 

         When you put my heart on ice

With such freezing intentions

I became so chilled to the bone

My feelings are an iceberg

That would tear apart

Two lovers on the titanic.

 

Chorus

 

         Why does the blood flow

When the heart has lost

A reason to beat?

Why does the blood seep

When the heart feels like

It is six feet deep?

 

Bridege

 

         Like a river without a lake

I have nowhere to go

Leaving me no choice

Flooding out my feelings

Till everything we built together

Is washed away into the black sea.

 

Reviews

[Briana O'Connor]

Intensity rains in every word. Such power in this song. Very well written. Your friend should be so grateful for your exquisite talent.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Awe shucks, thank you, you are too kind… they seemed to like what I came up with.

[David Scott]

This reads like a great folk ballad. Good work.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Well thank you, the tune is actually a slow dark rock song but it could work that way too.
