Breathing Blood Lyrics
Regaining consciousness under a swinging moon
He speaks of alliances that beckoned me
long before the wombI've caused more wounds than I'm worth
I see now you must not have heard
I am the natural born killerThere is freedom past your history
This air won't fill my lungs
Because you should be breathing blood
See this death, it was your victory
So teach me to fill my lungs
To never stop breathing bloodBut I had it all so very wrong
But I fought, I fought with only song
'Cause I've tried, I'm trying like a beast all alone
My words, my words have aired in poisonPlease teach me how to breathe
'Cause this air is failing my need
Fill my lungs with what won't bleed from my enemies
If death is victory, how afraid of life can we be?I'm born a war machine
Not knowing which beckon to heed
Will I rise as a tool for glory
Or be lost in dormancies?I've regained consciousness under this swinging moon
You filled my lungs and each breath heals
This killer's woundsThere is freedom past your history
But this air won't fill my lungs
You should be breathing blood
See this death, it was your victory
So teach me to fill my lungs
To never stop breathing blood'Cause I hear Him speaking to me
For the first time He cleared my head
That's when He saidOnly cowards keep dormant sleeping strength
And soon you'll find
Only the fearless will reach their potential's peakOnly cowards keep dormant sleeping strength
And soon you'll find
Only the fearless will reach their potential's peakTell me if death is victory, how afraid of life can we be?
If death is victory how afraid of life can we be?
