How I Bleed Lyrics


Gradually the leaves turn to gold

They offer me the promise of an end

Still I know the end won’t come

And I’ll burn in the fire of fall

The ocean eats the rays of light

Cold at heart I just stand and stare

As they break through the clouds

Into the black they disappear

Exhausted I sleep without any relief

Nothing changes but the scenery

Once again we stumble only to find

there is no one there to break the fall

Everything’s gone I accept my fate

Enduring hate in the silence of this womb

The irony is that history

repeats itself, tiring the soul.

How I bleed for you, how I bleed for you

Silence me with sweet stories

Wrap me in memories no longer allowed

I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, lie and seethe

Thought it be peaceful, oh how I bleed, how I bleed

You pierce me with your ice cold stare

How I envy your beauty, your being

And how you never really care that I’ll

love you forever eternally

The omnipresent rumble of the sea

conceals the pain from everyone but me

When words aren’t enough I want to trust

that time will heal, but I’ve lost all faith

Exhausted I sleep without any relief

Nothing changes but the scenery

Once again we stumble only to find

there is no one there to break the fall

Everything’s gone I accept my fate

Enduring hate in the silence of this womb

The irony is that history

repeats itself, tiring the soul.

You blind me with lies that I want to believe

Open my eyes to the truth I can feel

You pierce me with words that I have to believe, have to believe

How I bleed for you, how I bleed for you

Silence me with sweet stories

Wrap me in memories no longer allowed

I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, lie and seethe

Thought it be peaceful, oh how I bleed, how I bleed

The golden blaze of April meadows

Omen of dark times ahead

The life it brings means nothing to me

Speaks of what’s not to be

Forgotten mirrors, covered up

Reflecting ghosts of the past

Shadows dance across the glass

Before fleeing into the dark

As I walk through the swaying grass

On hilltops lingering with long light

I know that I’ll remember

I know that I’ll remember this forever

How I bleed for you, how I bleed for you

Silence me with sweet stories

Wrap me in memories no longer allowed

I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, lie and seethe

Thought it be peaceful, oh how I bleed, how I bleed

How I bleed for you, how I bleed for you

Silence me with sweet stories

Wrap me in memories no longer allowed

I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, lie and seethe

Thought it be peaceful, oh how I bleed, how I bleed
