Blood & Glory
 

Verse 1

Stranger in a strange town, lay me down and cut me open
Stranger in a strange town, lay me down, lay me down
Stranger in a strange town, lay me down and cut me open
Stranger in a strange town, lay me down, lay me down now…

Verse 2

All caught up in the siren sound and twisted with this wicked notion
Sympathy is not allowed don’t walk too proud, talk too loud
I pay my price, hit the ground - a broken like restraining order
Angels on their nasty clouds, it’s paradise lost and it’s purgatory found now

CHORUS x 2

Something in me just won’t forgive me
Gimme shelter from her Helter Skelter
Winter sweltered, when I felt her
Falling down before me—blood and glory

Verse 3

I wish I’d never seen him weeping, he was like a brother to me
We were hiding, he was sinking, always creeping, hardly breathing
Burned his arm, started bleeding, now we live in different cities
High and blind and sick of dreaming. Sick of dreaming, sick boy dreaming!

CHORUS x 2

Something in me just won’t forgive me
Gimme shelter from her Helter Skelter
Winter sweltered when I felt her
Falling down before me—blood and glory

Bridge

I swore I'd give you everything I said I never loved you
I swore I'd give you everything anything and everything
I swore I'd give you everything I said I never loved you
I swore I'd give you everything anything and everything

Chorus x 2

Something in me just won’t forgive me
Gimme shelter from her Helter Skelter
Winter sweltered when I felt her
Falling down before me—blood and glory

Outro

Did you think he was never gonna find out?
Never get wise like a vicious little spy
Now I won’t sympathize with a butterfly knife
and he’s falling down before me—

Blood and glory

Did you think that we were free and you could just leave?
And you can be with me and we would just go away?
And we could celebrate in a far place?
It’s such a waste, such a God-damned waste!
Just empty
Blood and glory
Just… Just empty
Blood and glory
Just… uh-oh uh uh oh
Blood and glory
Just… uh-oh uh uh oh
Blood and glory
