The Horrible Crowes – Blood Loss lyrics

My first love was an arsonist
Black eyes deep set and avarice
Red lips built like a tomb
You'll never get out of this
(Some day I'll see to this)

And moonlight I found would bow
To a slender hand stretched out
Fingers inside of your heart and your mind
I'll never get out of this
(Some day I'll see to this)

I'll tell you when it's over
I'll tell you when you can leave
I'll tell you when you've cried long enough that your blood fills my cup
And my footsteps, they hung in your hallway enough
For you to be truly haunted
(Baby by me)

My first love was a murder
Before I ever got to her
Tongue so sharp and serpentine
Waltz to remember her
(I'll call you later)
And I heard a curse being born
Forming each finger and forming each thorn
I became like a stone
Things never got better
(I'll call you later)
And practicing lies to drip like red wine off her lips

And I'll tell you when it's over
And I'll tell you when you can leave
I'll tell you when you've cried long enough
Till your blood fills my cup
And my footsteps they hung in your hallway enough
For me to be truly haunting

And I'll tell you when it's over
And I'll tell you when you can leave
I'll tell you when you've criend long enough
Till your blood fills my cup
And my footsteps they hung in your hallway enough
For me to be truly haunting

(When your blood starts counting losses)
When your blood counts it's losses
(When your blood starts counting losses)
When your blood counts it's losses
(When your blood starts counting losses)
When your blood counts it's losses

Sirens they come and sirens they leave
Sirens they come and sirens they leave
Sirens they come and sirens they leave
Sirens they come and sirens they leave
Sirens they come and sirens they leave
