Blood is only paint
Blood is only paint
Blood is holy paint
The pigment of my imagination -
An atonement of abomination
Blood is only paint
Blood is holy paint
That leaks from the lips of pointed swords,
And drips onto the realms of pallet boards
Blood is only paint
Blood is holy paint
To be mopped-off the surface of polish,
For the quaking rough within to garnish
Blood is only paint
Blood is holy paint
That bathes this dirt off this ancient floor
Canvassing frequency fields of rainbows that Mate Me Sie saw;
Blood is only paint
Blood is holy paint
Blood is holy pain;
Blood is only stain
Slash your wrist,
Slash your wrist,
Paint a pristine sea;
Slash your wrist
Paint a green earth!
[Slash your wrist,
Paint a sincere smile;]..2x
Slash your wrist and die!
And you will live again;
Why? For
Blood is only paint!
