Drops of Blood
Drops of blood rain down
From my fingernails
I can feel my heart beat
Multiplied by ten
Funny how life lives longer
After the shock of pain
CHORUS
She never would have known that
Had she not felt it in herself
On that day it rained
In the middle of winter
When she felt the peace
Of her beating heart.
Drops of blood on the snow
Red strong against the white
Such a symbol drove
Countries in chaos
CHORUS
She never would have known that
Had she not felt it in herself
On that day it rained
In the middle of winter
When she felt the peace
Of her beating heart
Of her beating heart.
Red that's washed away
Into the brown by the rain
Washes the white snow with it
But leaves my skin clean.
Funny how life lives longer
After the shock of pain
CHORUS
She never would have known that
Had she not felt it in herself
On that day it rained
In the middle of winter
When she felt the peace
Of her beating heart
Her beating heart...
Drops of blood in the rain
In the snow
In my heart.
