"Homemade Blood" lyrics - CHUCK PROPHET

You got seven scarlet veils
I got a hammer and I got nails
And I've been pounding
Lookin' for a stud
Nothin' but the best for my girl
A ruby and a rose, a strawberry swirl
My love it started as a leak
Graduated into a flood
Pretty soon I'll be fallin'
I can hear my own voice callin'
Drownin' in a sea of homemade blood

Homemade blood
Cheap red wine
Spillin' out the alley
And the creek is high
Steal a heart
You pay a fine
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky

You got lips as red as sin
You got a heart that I want in
And we've been stranded
In the fog and in the mud
Nobody looks like you
Pink slippers and a rose tattoo
My love it started as a leak
Graduated into a flood
Pretty soon I'll be fallin'
I can feel my own heart sinkin'
Down into a sea of homemade blood

Homemade blood
Cheap red wine
Spillin' out the alley
And the creek is high
Steal a heart
You pay a fine
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky

Homemade blood
Cheap red wine
Spillin' out the alley
And the creek is high
Steal a heart
You pay a fine
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky

I been burnin' in my sleep
Countin' slaughtered sheep
To the sound of laughter
Rainin' from above
If I can't have all of you
There ain't no telling what I might do
So tell me baby, tell me baby
Who do you love?
Pretty soon I'll be leavin'
I'd say the odds are less than even
I'll pull out of this sea of homemade blood

Homemade blood
Cheap red wine
Spillin' out the alley
And the creek is high
Steal a heart
You pay a fine
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky
