One Dollar Short

Shots Were Fired (Bloodstains)

One Dollar Short


I am bleeding
there is blood on my hands
On every knife in the kitchen drawers
bloodstained scissors on the bedroom floor
can anybody hear me
I don't want to die alone
choking on these feelings
like spikes and splinters
it's behinde my eyes
it's in my spine
it's spreading like a diease
it's spreading like cancer
wearing me down
embrace it
or leave it all behind

[chorus]
leave it all behinde
emotion is dead

I'll bleed, if you will bleed?
you drank my blood
like a vampire
cut my heart out with a 12" blade
like a nightmare you can't remember
a dialtone requiem
for those de-hearted

[chorus]
