~ You’re In My Blood ~

Once I was a pale and hollow vapor
Adrift among the voices all around

Before me, there arose a stunning flower
Drowning all the noise without a sound

Carelessly I wandered in delusion
Wanton shadows were the only home I knew

Until the flower drew me nearer; ever nearer
Its essence filled my senses through and through...

[pause / refrain ]

~~ {chorus} ~~
You’re in my blood…
Deeper than the wells within my hell…

You saved me from eternal hopelessness
In helpless screaming silence as I fell.

You’re in my blood…
So much stronger than the doubt… that used to rule my fate

You kept me from a certain fatal fall
You became the key to the lock upon my gate

You’re in my blood…
Burning from within… and coursing, ever coursing through my veins….

You’re in my blood…
The only one who frees my from those endless heavy chains

You’re in my blood…
You [ARE]… my… blood.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Long ago I made a promise to myself
Never to be bound by circumstance

To always hold onto the things that truly mattered most;
To never fail to take a risk; to always savor every chance…


But for a moment I had surely lost my focus
Blinded by the walls around my past

Until the sight of you, my precious priceless flower,
Removed from me the darkest shadows ever cast…

[pause / refrain]

~~ {chorus} ~~
You’re in my blood…
Deeper than the wells within my hell…

You saved me from eternal hopelessness
In helpless screaming silence as I fell.

You’re in my blood…
So much stronger than the doubt… that used to rule my fate

You kept me from a certain fatal fall
You became the key to the lock upon my gate

You’re in my blood…
Burning from within… and coursing, ever coursing through my veins….

You’re in my blood…
The only one who frees my from those endless heavy chains

You’re in my blood…
You [ARE]… my… blood.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
