In Blood

Just a fatal vision left to turn your blood to rust
And the lines grow ever thinner between things that I can trust
And that path, forsaken, just like those before
We kill with words we’d say
Just because we’re better off that way
Maybe we should write it out in blood
Blessed are these words just beyond my touch
And when the innocence is gone, will out words forever change?
It seems my lines of resolutions always seem to come out framed
And is it all for nothing? Don’t let me turn away
We kill with words we’d say
Just because we’re better off that way
Maybe we should write it out in blood
Blessed are these words just beyond my touch
And there’s no laughter anymore -- no release from misery
For one who’s tried so hard and failed at every step
I’ve bid on chances still beyond my touch
And the further I release, I’m promising too much
And when I die forgotten, just one fading breath
We kill with words we’d say
Just because we’re better off that way
Maybe we should write it out in blood
Blessed are these words just beyond my touch
