Defeater - Blood In My Veins Lyrics
Can you hear those birds sing?
Means we're closer to shore
Means we're closer to home
Further from love and war
What we were born to do
What kept the blood in our veins
Keep my veins thin with booze
Kept my hand on my gun
And my gun by my side
Kept the moon in my thoughts
With the sun in my eyes
Kept my gun by my side
My brother's name in my head
And the tears from my eyes
Kept the blood in my veins
Kept the blood in my veins
Brother's name in my head
Kept the blood in my veins
I've been praying for death
For me and my friends
So we'd never wake up
To our lovers again
Because every lover had lied
When they said we'd be fine
When they said in good faith
They would sleep alone every night
Hope to come home in one piece with our boys by our side
Now we're ragged and the torn life the flags that we fly
Like the ones we lay down
On a coffin so clean
See those eyes staring back where the boys used to be
The boys we used to be
Kept the blood in my veins
(I re-read the postcards you sent, wish the truth was a lie)
Kept the blood in my veins
(The waves on the hull, throw your words off the side)
Brother's name in my head
(The slip takes the deed, dying back home)
And the blood in my veins
(I want to sing to the depths, with the letters you wrote)
Kept the blood in my veins
Kept the blood in my veins
Brother's name in my head
And the blood in my veins
Kept the blood in my veins
