Because Of The Blood

Intro: I made you a flag out of leaves and grass I made you a map out of blood and glass We were young and we still are We were cold and it was dark The tide came early, one night erased Our names in the sand, alright our hands Were black from putting out the fire Talked about war through cans and wire In our neighborhood the houses were old The trees were young and the summer sea was cooo-o-old-o-o-o-o-old Because of the blood I wash my face in the mud Now I'm someone new Now I don't look like you I stood by the trees that had no leaves Let the snow seep into me I was lonely, but that's the way it was Supposed to be That's the way we used To feel, our hands were black from Putting out the fire Talked about you through cans and wire, through cans and wire I pulled your hair in the kitchen where the night was a blur And we were never bor-or-or-o-o-or-or-ored Because of the blood I wash my face in the mud Now I'm someone new Now I don't look like you Ah..ah..ah..ah oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Ah..ah..ah..ah ohhh
