Incubus - Blood On The Ground Lyrics






I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue every time you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.

Hand over my heart; I swear I've tried everything I could within all my power.
Two weeks and one hour I slaved, and now I've got nothing to show.
Oh, if only you'd grow taller than a brick wall.

From now on I'm gonna start holding my breath when you come around
and you flex that fake grin, cause something inside me has said more than twice
that breathing less air beats breathing you in!

I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue every time you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.

Hand over my mouth; I'm earning the right to my silence.
In quiet, discerning between ego and timing.
Good judgment is once again proving to me
that it's still worth it's weight in gold.

From now on I'm gonna be so much more wary when you start to speak
and my warm blood starts to boil,
that seeing you is like pulling teeth and hearing your voice is like
chewing tin foil.

I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue every time you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.

High fives to better judgment. By saying less today, I will gain more.
Low twos to you my fickle friend…
You’ve brought the art of silent war.

    The fucking lyrics of this song are exactly how I'm feeling right now. I've been an Incubus fan for years but I'm just feeling like this right now, and it's ridiculous. What a fucking shitty situation. But amazing lyrics, indeed. This song was definitely underrated by me. Now I understand. Thanks for sharing this to the world, Incubus.

    I listened to Morning View earlier while I was doing yoga. Well together! I'm totally amazed. Gosh! It sounds like the album. But why am I surprised? ;) Well yes. I think I'd climb roofs if talent grew there. The view would be striking. I think gods smiled when Incubus was born. When I listen to them here, it makes me want to comment even more often. Sorry!😂

    *The past year it was on Twitter and this year is here. The best place to me. Thanks Youtube!

    @ everyone who thinks U2 sucks, just look at their record sales and how popular they are. And they have great lyrics and song writing so yeah.
