VERSE 1

‘I’ll watch you keep digging at your grave,

But no I can’t keep making you make my mistakes.

You know I’m only at my best at sunset my dear,

So follow me until the darkness now,

Now.’

VERSE 2

‘Our bones are so broken & bruised I don’t know where,

Or when you’ll get that necceassary gasp of untouched air.

I want nothing more that you & your atoms on a leash,

So that our wants & desires can one day be in sync.

[But I want it] now.’

CHORUS

‘And I’m sorry for taking away your only wish,

To have a love in something much greater & more than ‘this’.

But I’ll never let you forfeit,

Because without you I am drained.

‘Bloodless’.’

VERSE 3

‘And as you realise you finally fit into your grave,

I say ‘Why don’t you rather bury our mistakes?’.

But as I look back into the horrible mess you’ve made,

I read that the grave-stone spells only ‘fate’,

[Can I be your] fate?

BRIDGE

‘Don’t hide,

Don’t hide.

You say I’ve let you down two too many times.

But I’m sick,

I’m so sick.

I won’t stop ‘till the sun sets us apart from ‘this’.’

CHORUS

‘And I’m sorry for taking away your only wish,

To have a love in something much greater & more than ‘this’.

But I’ll never let you forfeit,

Because without you I am drained.

‘Bloodless’.’

OUTRO

‘But I want it now,

I won’t let your pulse down.

Oh no,

I can’t let you drown.

‘Cos then I’m left ‘bloodless’.’

who ever told the populous that every tattoo had to have meaning please stop. sometimes just liking the art and having an artists work that you respect on you is meaning enough. not putting down those miami inkers that have a back story longer than the tattoo takes to perform, but seriously there aren’t cameras rolling here.
