The bell struck midnight and midnight struck back
I heard a faint knock as I sat back in my shack
You can live in quiet or you can live out loud
In the end we all get the same shroud
Maybe a few people and maybe a big crowd
To watch the dirt hit the box and stand beneath the clouds
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon the mud in the days before the flood
I write murder and murder I write
Put the pen to the page black the blackest night
How does it feel to be so goddamn right
Every single day and every fucking night
Living sideways in the city oh gives a good view of the lights
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon blood upon blood upon blood
Blood blood blood blood
This is blood upon the mud in the days before the flood
I turned on the radio
And the radio turned on me
It's not hard to tell
I would sell hell
Just to get close enough to smell
Your perfume
I'm a grave robber baby
I would exhume any tomb
I would exhume
