My Blood
Ellie Goulding · Divergent Soundtrack [2014]
That feeling that doesn't go away just did
And I walked a thousand miles to prove it
And I'm caught in the crossfire of my own thoughts
The colour of my blood is all I see on the rocks
As you sail from me.
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
My bones will bleach, my flesh will flee.
So help my lifeless frame to breathe
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
The lost dreams I buried in my sleep for him
And this was the ecstacy of love forgotten
And I'm thrown in the gunfire of empty bullets
And my blood is all I see as you steal my soul from me.
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And I walked a thousand miles to prove it
And I'm caught in the crossfire of my own thoughts
The colour of my blood is all I see on the rocks
As you sail from me.
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
My bones will bleach, my flesh will flee.
So help my lifeless frame to breathe
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
The lost dreams I buried in my sleep for him
And this was the ecstacy of love forgotten
And I'm thrown in the gunfire of empty bullets
And my blood is all I see as you steal my soul from me.
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And god knows I'm not dying but I breathe now
And god knows It's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
