Pixies - I Bleed Lyrics






as loud as hell
a ringing bell
behind my smile
it shakes my teeth
and all the while
as vampires feed
i bleed

prithee, my dear,
why are we here
nobody knows
we go to sleep
as breathing flows
my mind secedes
i bleed

there's a place
in the buried west
in a cave
with a house in it
in the clay
the holes of hands
you can place
a hand in hand
in bleed

Pixies I Bleed Comments
  1. B.... R....

    The demo 2 version is superior. From the Doolittle B-sides demo album.

  2. B.... L....

    Reminds me of Waiting Room by Fugazi

  3. G.... I....

    Tan fuerte como el infierno
    una campana sonando
    detrás de mi sonrisa
    mis dientes tiemblan
    y todo el tiempo
    como comida para vampiros
    me desangro

    Prithee cariño mío
    porque estamos aquí
    nadie lo sabe
    nos vamos a dormir
    como la respiración fluye
    mi mente se separa
    me desangro

    hay un lugar
    en el oeste oculto
    en una cueva
    con una casa en ella
    en la arcilla
    agujeros de manos
    tu puedes situar
    un mano a mano
    me de

    Interesting quote from Skarsgaard but has me perplexed. I guess we will have to wait and see.

  5. A.... ....

    The Batman trailer music!

  6. S.... S....

    So glad this is the tone of The Batman!!!!

  7. T.... ....

    here from the batman i actually like this a lot

  8. G.... M....

    I came here because of Peter Sarsgard talking about The Batman 2021. Hi 👋🏻

  9. M.... ....

    Peter Sarsgaard brought me here.

  10. M.... N....

    peter saarsgard brought me here

  11. E.... O....

    Just here cause Skarsgard said Matt Reeves The batman feels like this song. Looking and listening for clues.

    E.... O....

    @Rompe Ortos LOL! I have to ask...did you quote this from Dead Presidents?

    E.... O....

    @Batman Dawn Of Justice i think he is saying this will be the tone of the movie

    E.... O....

    loukou amanda kelly Well if that’s what he was trying to say then he certainly didn’t say it. But if he was actually somehow referring to the tone, he’s either just as wrong, or this movie’s going to suck (and in turn my life is going to suck), because this sounds like an extremely edgy teen band trying to be dark and cool and experimental. I could even see this being a song in Twilight, and that’s not a compliment, at all.

    E.... O....

    loukou amanda kelly And Colin Farrell recently described The Batman’s script as being dark, beautiful, and moving. This song isn’t any of that except for dark, and it doesn’t even do that well.

    E.... O....

    Batman Dawn Of Justice he said it reminds him of when he was in college and seen the Pixies. He said the way the atmosphere made him feel the same way he does when he’s on set. A young and fresh feeling I would assume.

  12. T.... B....

    I’ve had that drum beat stuck in my head for so long

  13. C.... ....

    WE GO TO SLEEP
    AS BREATHING FLOWS
    MY MIND SECEDES

  14. S.... B....

    As loud as hell
    A ringing bell
    Behind my smile
    It shakes my teeth
    And all the while
    As vampires feed
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed

    Prithee, my dear
    Why are we here?
    Nobody knows
    We go to sleep
    As breathing flows
    My mind secedes
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed

    There's a place
    In the buried west
    In a cave
    With a house in it
    In the clay
    The holes of hands
    You can place
    A hand in hand
    I bleed
    I bleed
    I bleed

    My sister said it sounds like they're saying "I'm peeing" and I can't unhear it

    J.... N....

    J.... N....

    I dont hear it, at all, and think ur sister is pretty dumb.

  17. A.... G....

    I was in 9th grade (nine years ago). My dad picked me up from an FFA meeting at school late at night. He had the Pixies’ Doolittle album playing. I listened for a while and then I asked “Dad, what is this?” He said “It’s the Pixies. They’re one of my favorite bands.” I said “they sound weird” and he just laughed and said “Yeah, I guess they do.” Then the song I Bleed came on. Instantly I was blown away. I had never heard anything like it. When we got home I looked the song up and listened to it on repeat. Then I stayed up until 3am on a school night listening to every album from start to finish. And that was it.

    A.... G....

    Im Mexican xd 17 years old

    A.... G....

    Similar thing happened to me. I'd been listening to Pixies since I was born (my dad is a fanatic), especially Trompe le Monde. One day in the car, was gonna tell my dad that, even though I like them, they sound kinda weird. Then, Where is my mind started playing.
    *MIND BLOWN*
    Number one favorite band ever since

    A.... G....

    I had a similar experience about 24 years ago. I was 14. Actually I was feeling like this quite often these years. I was discovering music genres and bands and there was so much good music. Also, there was no Internet then, so this discovery process was much more slow and intence.

    A.... G....

    Man ım in europe and ı dont now what is ffa. But ı liked your story. :D. I laughed, its good.

    A.... G....

    This song is just incredible. You can't imagine how you would write this. When it kicks in, all of their dynamics come to life. It really is unique.

    Very slight similarities. Weezer loved the pixies!
