i see you through blood

i see you through blood

single drops, single thoughts
all the while your wound it rots
so adept, now point the way
bleeding on us as you say:

"trust me on this
i now know bliss
close your eyes
now my disguise
will hide a face
the human race

trust me on this
while mockers hiss
close your ears
to shut out fears"
...and yet this face
you couldn't trace

we will sit and watch
the red lines draw their way on you
believe what you want
your wounds bleed
and tell us you were a liar all along

i saw you through blood
and it told me everything i needed
