Blood Hands

Took a lonely feeling

Just to let the meaning sink

Like the sun goes down

Never close to heaven

Felt my feet were burning

From the same red hot ground

There's blood on my hands

There's blood on my hands

Yeah, there's blood

It's getting hard to listen

When the clock is ticking

Counting down the days gone by

Praying for an answer to another question

That will only leave you dry

You won't understand

With your head in the sand

No, you won't

But I'll kiss the ground where you kneel

'Til I grow my hair to my heels

Spike your water, your wine

While you waste my precious time

Every time I drink and try to stop my thinkin'

'Bout the things I've said and done

Stop the world from turning faster

Then I'm learning not to just hide and run

You won't understand

With your head in the sand

No, you won't, yeah

Love came and went faster

Than a penny spent in a slot machine

Nowhere near the devil

Just somewhere in between you and me

Sworn to secrecy

And I'll kiss the ground where you kneel

'Til I grow my hair to my heels

Spike your water, your wine

There's blood on my hands

There's blood on my hands

There's blood on my hands

There's blood on my hands

Yeah, there's blood

There's blood on my hands

Yeah, there's blood

Took a lonely feeling

Just to let the meaning sink

Like the sun goes down

Never close to heaven

Felt my feet were burning

From the same red hot ground
