Bailie's Blood

Out of the earth comes blessing and curse
And a famine, defeat my feast
I only wanna be last, 'cause I wanna be first. Greed.
Wind blows strong keeps me in my place,
But there's so much here, offered, which I can't leave
Cant find anywhere to turn my face but to give
So much good, still in the blood, oh the blood
So much good, still in the blood, oh the blood

Currents grows strong, I must swim against
To the rock, I can find and pace my breath,
Gain my strength and shake the fence,
Even if it ends in death,
When the fires have been quenched by the flood or the blood
When the fires have been quenched by the flood or the blood

I've known the love of a woman, in her darkest hours.
And I've beckoned to the calling of her room,
The road was so steep and sweet it was strong like flowers
But her bed smelled like a tomb

Who are these people round me telling me
What are these lies?
I gotta watch my back as they break my bones
But I can't see for the blood in my eyes
Home, take me home
Gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
Gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood

Smoke fills a room and I can't breathe
Cannot see but I have my wife
And I've got so much, so little to bequeath
Life, oh life!
When the fires have been quenched by the flood or the blood
When the fires have been quenched by the flood or the blood

I gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
I gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
Or the blood, tell me bout the blood!

I gotta move real fast 'cause I'm fast in the mud or the blood
Or the blood, or the blood
I gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
Or the blood, tell me 'bout the blood!
I gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
I gotta move real fast but I'm fast in the mud or the blood
