Blood in the Water lyrics
by Bookish Songs Collective
[Verse 1]
My skin against your fingertips
The only solace on a night like this
You slipped through the dark
And I ask you to stay
[Verse 2]
Your breath in my mouth
Too late to stop it now
You sustain my attitude
And I need you to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
I am the daughter of the roots that climb into this world
(Into this world)
Your sovereign pursuits
The web you weave from what you're told
You hold my heart in your hands but your soul they swear I stole
We say we're only just friends, but I keep coming back for more
[Chorus]
Bring your blade to me
Say your vows from loyal knees
I was only ever made to bow before my king
Keep me like a secret, I'll keep you like an oath
So long as you know there's blood in thе water
[Verse 3]
Your eyes arе always finding me
Too bold for this destiny
I was bred and raised for
I won't be this way
[Verse 4]
My mind knows the bond you need
But my heart hopes you still choose me
I won't be held down by my name
But we were born this way
[Pre-Chorus]
I am the son of the table that holds things as they were
All that sovereign proof
What they don't know doesn't hurt
You hold my heart in my hands
The heart you're keeping whole
You say we're only just friends, but I keep coming back for more
[Chorus]
Bring your blade to me
Say your vows from loyal knees
I was only ever made to bow before my king
Keep me like a secret, I'll keep you like an oath
So long as you know there's blood in the water
[Bridge]
I keep my word, I keep my promise
Not afraid of being bound to you
I keep my word, I'll keep my promise
Not afraid of being bound to you
I keep my word, I keep my promise
Not afraid of being bound to you
I keep my word, I'll keep my promise
Not afraid of being bound to you
I keep my word, I keep my promise
Not afraid of being bound to you
(I'm not afraid of being bound to you)
I keep my word, I keep my promise
Not afraid of being bounty
(I'm not afraid of being bound to you)
[Outro]
Keep me like a secret, I'll keep you like an oath
So long as you know there's blood in the water
