I've Got Your Blood Lyrics

You ride your bike around the navy yard

You lie about your age so you can join the first world war

I heard that you can talk to anyone you meet

Well I wish that you could talk to me

When I was born you were already dead

So you ride your bike around the navy yard in my head

And I've got your blood inside of me

We're not the same, but probably close enough

So when 70 years have turned to stone

And I'm living with your blood

It means you're not really gone

You smash your brother's head and bury him

But when God asks you, you say "I don't know where he is"

You dig a trench, you hold the line, you fire 'til you're spent

You try to forget

When I was born you'd already drank yourself to death

But you keep digging up holes in my head

And I've got your blood inside of me

It's how I know, that I'm not good enough

For millions of years you killed to live

And I'm living with your blood

Now how am I supposed to love?
