Blue Oyster Cult - Veins Lyrics
I open my eyes from a dreamless night
With a sense of dread you could cut with a knife
Still I'm thinking that maybe I killed somebody
Never know, never know when
Might have killed somebody
Veins in my eyeballs
Damage that I've done
Veins on the stairways
Veins in my skull
I visit my friend
We have a fight
I'm drinking his whiskey
I'm wanting his wife
Then the image goes black,
Cause there ain't no clues, no clues
That I killed somebody
Veins in my eardrums
Banging at my door
Veins in my brainwaves
Veins on the floor
I get the shivers and I've got the shakes
People screamin' my name
like there's no mistake
Can't believe it's true
That I killed somebody
But I just don't know, don't know
Did I kill somebody
Veins on the sidewalk
Veins know the score
Veins in my mind, ohhhhhh
Veins evermore...

Blue Oyster Cult Veins Comments
Don’t even! It’s ALL good trust me!!!!! 🤫💜🖤💋I won’t even finish it
the start of the song reminds me of terminator for some reason
..........1983...........one UNFORGETTABLE YEAR............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The real fans know these songs!
This is one of my fav's by them. Off of an underrated album. One of the best riffs ever!
As a foreigner I always thought this song very weird. To me, as mystical a song like Workshop Of The Telescopes can sound, this one is their song I'm puzzled by the most, specially the title... Veins? Like arteries? WTF? I understand these lyrics but that weird title and the general hysterical Miami Vice atmosphere just leave me in demand for information...
I listen to this song pretty often nevertheless...
4 awesome songs on a WEAK album? WTH
I reckon I was always a bit harsh on this LP.... maybe it's the gay electronic drums and the 80's keys.... overall it's not a bad LP. I can't forgive the next one though..... yukko !!!
I don't think they ever did this live nor do I think they or the record co thought much of it, I think it rocks and should be added to the live set................thoughts, comments?
905Alive I totally agree. Great smashmouth tune.
the intro to this is so good! I love how the drums go from left to right!
As a BOC fan I feel sorry for people that will never hear these hidden gems.
Tru dat
some times you feel like this
not dated but timeless- a sequel or killers point of view from morning final
A real hidden gem in the BOC song catalog.
elevatorsfan this was my first boc song and man am i happy about that
elevatorsfan Hey! I love your videos! Just finished watching all your Kiss reviews. Love your BÖC vids, too! Heck, they're all great!
A terrifying realization to awaken to...
I feel like these lyrics after drinking for couple of days
Dangit this is so slick! SLICK!
Brilliant guitars
Cheesy? Don't think so.
sk8allday888 you suck!!
Cultosaurus, Club Ninja and Revolution changed my life.
the check out the self-titled, tyranny and mvtation, and secret treaties to really change your life
brilliant song. underated album this and although not one of their best had some magical tracks on it.
Anything Donald and Richard wrote together ended up a masterpiece. Veins is no exception!
Maybe I killed somebody
You never know, you never know when you might have killed somebody.
Iroh as profile pic, legendary
For some time I was put off listening to this album and Club Ninja simply because the general concensus was they are crap but after listening to both, I disagree. Sure they both aren't as strong as Fire of Unknown Origin or Agents of Fortune but they have some blinding tracks like this, Shooting Shark and Club Ninja's Perfect Water and Dancing in the Ruins although somewhat cheesy never fail to impress.
It is, and a good representation of 1980's NY yuppie culture and 80's attitudes in general.
Yeah, good reference. That was actually a very good movie!
The Richard Melter penned lyrics remind me of some sort of alternate version of 'American Psycho' where the guy is doing these killings and he or us knows whether they are actually committed or just imagined
Agreed. Very dated but damned if I don't love it. Buck's guitar and vocs save it.
Love this song even though you get this uber '80's cheese television feel from it, like something on Miami Vice or something
Buck was the best, fuck it! His songs NEVER failed. Even the Bouchard brothers' songs aren't 100% great.
I liked his singing on this album, Shooting Shark has particularly good vocals. On Veins, it is hilarious when he says "Veins..in..my..SKULL" the lyrics are so asinine!
Bucks singing is not bad at all! but it is hilarious when he says "somebohhhday" lol
great song though thanks for the post wizard.
Why is the singing so bad? Buck usually sings well.
