Blood

Was there once something so pure That left me whole and precious? But now, broken, wondering Why this new ingredient? Everything I crave I become Everything I left forgotten Everything I love I become 'Cause that's what happens when you reach the bottom [Chorus] Where does the blood go? It runs away from broken lives Where does the blood go? It runs away from broken lives There's an ugly crowd here beside me They specialize in violations Once they numbered only a handful Grew out of the ashes of what we had good There'll be another awkward scene tonight As we choose to ignore the obvious Quickly averting our eyes When we see what there is left of [Chorus] Our love hangs here beside us From its feet, twitching, desperate The juice that splashes our white boots Now they're matted and confused There'll be another ugly scene tonight As we refuse to accept the obvious We panic and jump up and down Trying to suck those last breaths [Chorus] --- Blood - Tindersticks
