"My Blood" lyrics - ELLIE GOULDING

ELLIE GOULDING
"My Blood"
(Jim Eliot / Ellie Goulding / Mima Stilwell)

That feeling that doesn't go away just did
And I walked a thousand miles to prove it
And I'm caught in the crossfire of my own thoughts
The color of my blood is all I see on the rocks
As you sail from me

[Pre-Chorus:]
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
My bones will bleach
My flesh will flee
So help my lifeless frame to breathe

[Chorus:]
And God knows, I'm not dying but I breath now
And God knows, it's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew

The lost dreams are buried in my sleep for him
And this was the ecstasy of a love forgotten
And I'm thrown in the gunfire of empty bullets
And my blood is all I see
As you steal my soul from me

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me

[Chorus:]
And God knows, I'm not dying but I bleed now
And God knows, it's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew

[Instrumental bridge]

[Chorus:]
And God knows, I'm not dying but I bleed now
And God knows, it's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew
And God knows, I'm not dying but I bleed now
And God knows, it's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
(I lost with you, I lost with you)
It drowns the love I thought I knew
(I thought I knew, I thought I)
