LyricsShow lyrics

By JoAnn Abbott and Caleb Hines

We're standing here alone, and I cannot believe,
Our life has changed, and I can only grieve.
All I wanted was to know,
But when I broke His law, I was forced to go...

I feel a chill that I have never felt before.
And wrap the skin around.
Smell the blood, the sacrifice of pain.
Spilling on the ground.

If you hadn’t given in,
But you went along,
We would not need these bleeding skins
I needed you to be strong
Now death begins

[Chorus]
First blood First blood
A stain I cannot wash away
First blood First blood
To pay a debt I cannot pay
An innocent has died so I can live another day
I cannot get away from this first blood

It happened on a Friday night,
It seemed as if the world had lost its light,
As everybody ran in fright,
The sacrifice did not put a fight.

But when the last blood fell upon the killing ground
The final debt was paid
Third days dawning, a hope there was found
Which never more would fade

From the first blood that fell for me
I will not forget,
To the last drops that set me free
The person who paid my debt
For love of me.

[Chorus]
Last Blood Last blood
That covers from the son of man
Last blood last blood
The gift to all within the land
The innocent has risen and fulfilled his father’s plan
He loved us all he can
With His last blood

Nice piano playing. The lyrics are a little overdramatic, but I like the singing and the use of two voices. Problematically, however, the female vocalist is recorded on a microphone of noticeably lower quality. This is another one that I didn't quite get until I actually read the lyrics thread and noticed that certain pronouns were capitalized... maybe I just pick up on religious cues poorly? Not a whole lot else to say about this one, I'm afraid. It's quite pretty.
