I took a lonely feeling just to let the meaning sink like the sun goes down Never close to heaven, felt my feet were burning from the same red hot ground There's blood on my hands, there's blood on my hands, yeah, it's blood It's getting hard to listen when the clock is ticking, counting down the days gone by Praying for an answer to another question that will appease you dry You won't understand, with your head in the sand But I'll cast the crown where you kneel Till I grow my hair to my heels Spot your warning and whine While you waste my precious time Every time I drink and try to stop my thinking about the things I said and done Stop the world from turning faster than I'm learning not to just hide and run You won't understand, with your head in the sand No you won't, yeah Love came and went faster than a penny spent in a slot machine Nowhere near the table, just somewhere in between you and me It's hard to see, see And I'll cast the crown where you kneel Till I grow my hair to my heels Spot your warning and whine Yeah, there's blood on my hands There's blood on my hands, yeah, there's blood Took a lonely feeling just to let the meaning sink Like the sun goes down Never close to heaven, felt my feet were burning From the same red-hot ground
