The Horrible Crowes - Blood Loss lyrics

rate me

My first love was an arsonist

Black eyes, deep set and avarice

Red lips built like a tomb

You'll never get out of this (some day I'll see to this)

And moonlight I found would bow

To her slender hand stretched out

Fingers inside your heart and your mind

You'll never get out of this (some day I'll see to this)

Boy...

And I'll tell you when it's over

I'll tell you when you can leave

I'll tell you when you cried long enough

Til your blood fills my cup

And my footsteps, they hung in your hallways enough

For you to be truly haunted (baby, by me)

My first love was a murderer

Before I ever got to her

Tongue so sharp and serpentine

Waltz to remember her (I'll call you later)

And I heard a curse being born

Forming each finger and forming each thorn

Til I became like a stone

Things never got better (but I'll call you later)

And practicing lies to drip like red wine off her lips

And I'll tell you when it's over

I'll tell you when you can leave

I'll tell you when you cried long enough

Til your blood fills my cup

My footsteps, they hung in your hallways enough

For you to be truly haunted

And I'll tell you when it's over

I'll tell you when you can leave

I'll tell you when you cried long enough

Til your blood fills my cup

My footsteps, they hung in your hallways enough

For you to be truly haunted

(When your blood starts counting losses)

When your blood counts it's losses

(When your blood starts counting losses)

When your blood counts it's losses

(When your blood starts counting losses)

When your blood counts it's losses

Sirens they come and the sirens they leave

Sirens they come and the sirens they leave

Sirens they come and the sirens they leave

Sirens they come and the sirens they leave
