Foals - Blue Blood Lyrics

just saw a video of someone who recorded running Berlin Half marathon and used this song - so cool!!! going to add this song plus some other of this bands songs to my Berlin half marathon training list on spotify :)

A+ for direction

One of my favorite songs of all time.

My interpretation of the meaning of this song according to the lyrics And the video:
The kid was her soon to be son, and she aborted him, so he came to tell her to forgive herself.

What a nice video :-)

Still loving it!

I really thought the kid was going to get shot at the end. Would have been interesting, but the real ending is better. He's wearing white and everything.

Great job guys this little boy has it all I love the foals he has a beautiful voice

This kid is f******* brillant

🤘👍💪👎👈

intro is YYYY

alguien sabe como se llama la cancion del intro? u.u

What song is Foals playing before the kid?

I’m guessing he tracked down his birth mother based on the lyrics. “Where I was born, where I belong.” Also, that little touch when he reached out to her and her partner/family member looked at her like “he’s yours?” 2:36

does somebody knows what song is playing in the beginning??

[Verse 2]
You got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul
Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you
To come and free me, take me away, and show me my home
Where I was born, where I belong

[Verse 3]
You got blue blood on your hands, I want you to know
I hoped you'd come and take me away, back to my home
Of all the people, it had to be you
Then I bite my nails to the quick, and run back home

[Chorus]
You show me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home

[Verse 4]
You got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul


[Chorus]
You show me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home

[Refrain]
Come and be accepted, affected, protected
(You show me)
Come and be accepted, so now you know
(Where to go, to my home)
Come and be accepted, affected, protected
(To my home, so take me)
Come and be accepted, so now you know
(Through the roads that you know to my home)

[Bridge]
You show me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know (You know, you know...)
You know to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know where you know
You showed me where to go, to my home


[Refrain]
Come and be accepted, affected, protected
Come and be accepted, so now you know
Come and be accepted, affected, protected
Come and be accepted, so now you know

[Outro]
You got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own
We can go down to the streets and follow the shoals
Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you
Show me my way back home, to where I was born
Where I belong, where I belong

9 years later. And still love this.

Nice clip. Amazing song.

Algum br aqui?

Nearly 10 years old and this song is the best song

I love this

Extrañaba escuchar este tipo de musica :') <3

That kid is me when I'm home alone

The video makes me love the song even more, which I thought was impossible

I'm here before the inevitable life is strange 2 crowd comes in!

who is he? (the kid)

Epic song 2018

Anyone likes these guitars should check out Kanda Bongo Man

benedict cumberbatch

Was that kid Bennedict Cumberbatch?

They shouldn't reject that kid...

anyone know what they were playing in the beginning?

2:12 "c mamo"

[Verse 1]
You've got blue blood on your hands, I think it's my own
We can go down to the streets and follow the shores
Of all the people, we could be two
Then I bite my nails to the quick, run back home
You've got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul
Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you
To come and free me, take me away
To show me my home
Where I was born
Where I belong

You've got blue blood on your hands, I want you to know
I hoped you'd come and take me away, back to my home
Of all the people, it had to be you
Then I bite my nails to the quick, run back home

[Chorus]
You showed me
Where to go
To my home
To my home
So take me
Through the roads
That you know
To my home

[Bridge]
You've got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul

[Chorus]
You showed me
Where to go
To my home
To my home
So take me
Through the roads
That you know
To my home

[Break]
Come with me accept it, affect it, protect it (You showed me)
Come with me accept it, so now you know (Where to go, to my home)
Come with me accept it, effect it, protect it (To my home, so take me)
Come with me accept it, so now you know (Through the roads that you know, to my home)

[Chorus]
You showed me
Where to go
To my home
To my home
So take me
Through the roads
That you know (You know, you know...)
You know
To my home

[Verse 2]
So take me through the roads
That you know where you know
You showed me where to go to my home

Come with me accept it, affect it, protect it
Come with me accept it, so now you know
Come with me accept it, effect it, protect it
Come with me accept it, so now you know
[Break]

You've got the blood on your hands, I know it's my own
We can go down to the streets and follow the shores
Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you
Show me my way back home, to where I was born
Where I belong, where I belong

These guys have the coolest videos (and songs).

Beautiful song. I always loved Benjamin Franklin Leftwich's version but it's not available in my country on any platform anymore which saddens me

The choreography is weird... Hahaha

how have i never heard this band????

When i read lacerta interview, i heard this song for the first time.and then the lyrics reminds me elohim

This music video and song could mean so many things:
1. His mom got an abortion and this kid is supposed to be like if he survived.
2. He is some kid confessing his love to his teacher.
3. It's an adult confessing his love, but he approached her like an innocent child.
4. This kid just found his biological mother after being adopted.
The list could go on and on.

I like 3 the best

3 works best

That Benekid Cumberboy got some moves.

Dam where have I been they ROCK

Where did they find a mini Martin Freeman?

legendary band.

Génial ce gamin ...

This song made me cry when I heard it live, in Argentina 22/10/16. Sorry about my english

What was that song they were doing in the beginning of the video?

thx LIS

The kid is wearing the GRYFFINDOR tie from Harry Potter.

If they toured with Two Door Cinema Club that would be perfection

You should have that intro in your next album

amo essa banda 😍😍😍

La vie est étrange, même si nous choisissons nous mêmes nos propres choix, le destin sera toujours la pour nous conduire quelque part, à un endroit imprévu. Ma Juju

whats the name of the song intro?

Ana Rosa "yyyyy" its not a joke :)

xD nice ...but its not the same, i was thinking in some cover...some type of surf music :O but...thank u

the way she looks at him at the end...

just discovered foals... nice museeek... starting to jam on this everyday

hello from russia.good song

kid loves the doubleway a p tration

This is geardaddy from rg as a kid..

Why does this song sound familiar

you guys does such a fuckingbeautifully and fantastic music! I love u <3

"I have a very disturbed child, don't I?"

0:29 Is this guy supposed to pass as a high schooler??? he looks like he should be working at staples selling printers.

The boy reminds me of a young Martin Freeman

i am 100% learning this kids dance and performing it in a talent show one day

bem confuso, mas foi um ótimo presente de aniversário kkkk postaram bem no dia 7/10

This is my interpretation. Based on his clothes he's actually an adult but he feels like a nervous little kid as he try's to impress a girl/women he once knew. As I feel most guys get this way when they try to impress a girl they really like, very vulnerable.

El intro de este video es un gran tono de celular

Is John Connor!

Anxiety

This song still makes me feel so good inside. My favorite fucking band for ever and ever!!!

It`s Charlie from Lost

anyone else know the song they are finishing at the beginning of this song?

It's an intro, that melody is at the end of it. It's called «yyyyy»

This lyrics are just perfect, describe so nicely the feeling of being really in love of someone who literally came to change your world.

that kid is me af

this song is so fucking amazing

<3 <3 I love this

Foals-Guys, I simply love your music videos! It's an art for itself.

and where did you find that boy?? a damn great actor! couldn't look away

Malcolm McDowell in the childhood

Love the song, but I don't really like watching the video, just because the kid reminds me of someone really weird at school who is always SUPER akward and had a crush on me for years. It just reminds me of him and kindof makes me uncomfortable for some reason :/

take some crime?

Terrific song Foals congratulations we like your music!!!! ;)

Fuck you for 0:38

the bass sounds awesome

I liked it, but I didn't understand shit.

You can see two perspectives... The kid is in love with his lady teacher or by the lyrics you could say that he's talking to his Mom. But hey that's just my take on it.

or its about pedophilia

willbassyeah.

I agree ! The paper he has in his hands at the beginning looks like a love confession (he seems so nervous). However, the lyrics seem to refer to a child who meets his mom (like an adopted child who looks for his biological mother) :)

This is my interpretation. Based on his clothes he's actually an adult but he feels like a nervous little kid as he try's to impress a girl/women he once knew. As I feel most guys get this way when they try to impress a girl they really like, very vulnerable.
