Forgiven Blood lyrics

[Intro]

I remember so well

When you said to me in turn non-believers would burn in hell

When you told me that scientists were merely under a spell

And the questions I asked were the voice of the devil himself

[Verse 1]

I tried to picture his face

My savior, my lord

But when I prayed I seen the image from that book on the shelf

It just didn't feel real, or maybe I was just bored

It was a double edge sword like dying when you were born

It tore me up like the pages I studied over and over

Hoping it'd click and that maybe I could think myself back in order

And so I learned it by heart, said all my prayers before bed

Grandmother spider up all night weaving that web in my head

You took me under your wing, you kept me within your reach

'Till slowly I felt as dead as fish in pelican beak

A burning hell in your speech, delicate, malleable brain

I opened up like a register ready to give you change

I opened up like umbrella afraid it was gonna rain

My mother gave you a hug, my father's hand you did shake

I put the change in the plate, you put the blood in my veins

You put the flesh in my mouth, I put my trust in your fangs

The rain came sudden

[Outro: Peter Pisano]

Reign came sudden

Broken chains

Kingdom's crumbling

For giving blood in vain

Forgiven blood in vein
