Xandria - Blood On My Hands Lyrics






Silver stars in my black night
Cold as ice but beautiful
Wandering through broken shadows
The river of life is all filled with sins
The water I drink is the blood on my hands

No-one sees how I'm burning
No-one feels this yearning
So come taste this black poison - You never reach this heart
And forgive my obsession - Something tears me apart
From myself

Silver stars in my black night
Cold as ice but beautiful
Wandering through broken shadows
The river of life is all filled with sins
The water I drink is the blood on my hands

Waiting for my damnation - your prosecutor's here
In my own accusation - you can't run from yourself
Oh we're living these lies all alone
So come on and throw the stone

Silver stars in my black night
Cold as ice but beautiful
Wandering through broken shadows
The river of life is all filled with sins
The water I drink is the blood on my hands

Pray to the gods I have sold in this game of live and let die
Pray for my soul in this world to deliver me from my sins
Pray...

All that's been and all I see now
Only a ghost of what I called...

Silver stars in my black night
Cold as ice but beautiful
Wandering through broken shadows
The river of life is all filled with sins
The water I drink is the blood on my hands

Xandria Blood On My Hands Comments
  1. C.... ....

    Que letra, que sinfonia espetacular e que vocal poderoso! Com certeza uma das melhores do Xandria!

  2. C.... ....

    Thank you for this incridible symphony!

    Tightening the wounds, it's ridiculous.
    You feel the pain and perpetuate it,
    you hate them and love them for being there.
    Your wounds heal and motivate you.
    His tears feed him,
    You say you'll wander through dark places until the end of time.
    You want to suffer, because that is your vice.
    I'm talking about me, I'm talking about you.
    Let's get lost, what's left?
    The fire will surround us, the blood will be beautiful to us.
    A toast to our lovely addiction, our pain forever and ever

    Manuela is the closest thing to Tarja Turunen, in this reality i mean:D although i must say, in 2018 i was at Epica's gig, and my god, Simone Simons is almost as good as Manuela and Tarja, she made such a long way, that's my girl:D

    N.... ....

    When Tarja's voice seems ethereal, Simone shines with sunrays, Manuela channels some cosmic frost from the very outskirts of the Solar system.

  4. J.... C....

    Supersong

  5. D.... M....

    All these great songs and yet "babymetal" is the group from this genre that gets all the attention...

    Damn weebs

    D.... M....

    babymetal is not symphonic metal lol

  6. K.... G....

    Manuela and Tarja should do song together. Imagine, how powerful that would be..

    K.... G....

    I would add Attila Dorn from powerwolf into the mix aswell. Easy 3 best voices in Earth.

  7. �.... �....

    Сильная вещь...

  8. �.... �....

    Excellent album

  9. M.... D....

    121k views, and that yomama song has 1 billion -> humans, they don't know whats good

    M.... D....

    Totaly agree.

  10. A.... M....

    This song is like a gaze into the dawn of our Universe, when the first star has lit the ice-cold space with its blazing blue light...

  11. J.... Y....

    esta canción es mi alma!!!

  12. S.... A....

    Awesome song awesome voice awesome all the way

  13. L.... W....

    I am so glad I found this group. Thank you random list of female metal bands I found on the internet xD

    L.... W....

    @Law Williams lol yeah !

    L.... W....

    +Law Williams Too  bad she only lasted for one album. I want more Manuella.

    L.... W....

    Is that her name?

    L.... W....

    @Steven G Manuela Kraller

    L.... W....

    @LeoPrieto27 Thanks.

  14. M.... G....

    I cant quite catch the meaning of the song, but its sounds epic!!! :D

    M.... G....

    I think it's about a witch who's going to be drowned in a river.

    M.... G....

    For me it's about the sinful nature of mankind and that we are somehow beautiful despite all we've done in our past. We are broken and formed by the things we did and things that were done to us. We're not perfect and often we feel that struggle deep inside us. We want to be a better version of ourselves, but are stuck inside our own failures and that hurts. We feel guilty for who we are and we feel worthless sometimes. But we keep fighting. There's a special kind of beauty to broken things. I guess the song is about the beauty of the unperfect human soul. But I'm just taking a guess here.

    M.... G....

    @Eva Arya Elda I have to second that... always thought about it similar to that...

  15. d.... ....

    Holy crud, I just finished bioshock infinite and this song just reminds me so much of that game!

    d.... ....

    I agree completely! XD

  16. M.... L....

    Manuela could be taken for Nightwish rather than Floor. Manuela keeps her voice mor stable in higher tones.. She can perfectly sing songs from first albuns of Nightwish like Stargazers, Deep Silent Complete, Pharaoh Sails to Orion and others.. That would be a great idea.

    M.... L....

    @Epictemptation7 I heard Floor's live version and Tarja's live version (use google). Tarja was better in From Wishes To Eternity era, now she sounds weird.

    M.... L....

    @Hromnice Nyarlathotepová Her voice type changed. She was a mezzo in her years with NW.

    M.... L....

    @Epictemptation7 I know, and that's why I don't listen Tarja now.

    M.... L....

    nightwish are not using operatic Style on Their songs from many years..I saw floor sing stargazers live and she's amazing! she is the best chioice for nightwish modern Style!

    RIP Xandria...

    D.... D....

    No way. They're now even greater than before, as they have got "Dark Floor Jansen" (Dianne van Giersbergen) to substitute "Dark Tarja Turunen" (Manuela Kraller)!

    D.... D....

    Rip oO are you serious, they sound way more epic then with their first Singer. and Van Giersbergen is a great replacement for Manuela Kraller, more then worthy. I'd say

    D.... D....

    +Doctum Daemonium Pfffft... Diane loses no ground to Manuela, at all. In fact, I'd say her (Diane's) vocal range is slightly wider than Manuela's. Sure, Manu has more of a queen-ish vibe to her style, but Diane's Princess-type charm is lovable as well.

  18. N.... ....

    How I wish Nightwish had gotten Manuela as their new singer.

    N.... ....

    She would not have accepted it. If she couldn't handle the pressure of a band like Xandria, it's obvious she would never think of a bigger one like Nightwish.

    N.... ....

    Manuela could be taken for Nightwish rather than Floor. Manuela keeps her voice mor stable in higher tones.. She can perfectly sing songs from first albuns of Nightwish like Stargazers, Deep Silent Complete, Pharaoh Sails to Orion and others.. That would be a great idea

    N.... ....

    Agreed! ... as much as I like FJ sometimes she seems to lose control and on occasion seems to scream rather than sing ..and apologies for arriving late

  19. j.... m....

    fantastica !!!

  20. D.... S....

    that voice, so beautiful. The power of this song is immense :D

  21. B.... P....

    Great song!

  22. B.... I....

    Manuela is gorgeous and a fantastic singer.

  23. S.... C....

    Seems like we have similar interests friend, I too came for inspiration for a book I'm writing, good luck with yours! :)

  24. M.... K....

    Who doesn't?

  25. w.... s....

    I just had an orgasm.

  26. V.... S....

    Lol for some reason the chorus to this song reminds me of Because The Night.. great song though! Truly epic.

  27. T.... M....

    Cold as Ice but... Beautiful !!!!

  28. b.... ....

    Those lyrics. Xandria just got 300% better with this new sound.

  29. j.... ....

    Xandria is the BEST. I have the biggest crush on Manuela!

  30. �.... ....

    Beautiful ^^

  31. b.... ....

    Love Xandria

  32. b.... ....
