Body and Blood Lyrics

Give me blood when I'm holy

Give me the body when I sin

Make me a saint by the sunrise

So i can bear the light again

Gold chains keep me bound to the barstool

Silver threads keep my head held high

Night falls heavy on my shoulders

The cold weight of wasted time

Slow steps bring me closer to the throne room

Brass keys get you through the door

Guarded by jesters singing show tunes

A quick shot keeps you off of the floor

Give me blood when I'm holy

Give me the body when I sin

Make me a saint by the sunrise

So i can bear the light again

Smoke trail leads me to the garden

Roses follow in my steps

Shining pearls through the darkness

Guiding lights on the road to regret

A slow song calls me back to the ballroom

Velvet waves roll over my head

Sirens sing through the typhoon

Watching sailors dance to their deaths

Give me blood when I'm holy

Give me the body when I sin

Make me a saint by the sunrise

So i can bear the light again

Three cheers to the broken, defeated

Last call for the beaten and damned

Bleeding hearts on the road to forever

A black parade from the promised land

Give me blood when I'm holy

Give me the body when I sin

Make me a saint by the sunrise

So i can bear the light again
