Bloody Fingers Lyrics

I, I never saw a reason
I never felt a need
To explain myself to someone
Who will just not let me be

You think I’m a failure
You think I cannot see
I guess you don’t remember how hard
Life’s lessons can be

And I’ll see you all the time
Act like everything is fine
Come look in these eyes of mine
I clutch this knife to take your life
Bloody murder on my mind
Make it look like suicide

Look, look at a picture
Before I hear you scream
I had forgotten
That it had once been just you and me

But on the picture
Connecting you and me
A happy day, a happy dream
I never thought I’d see

And I’ll see you all the time
Looking back with empty eyes
You can’t see what mirrors hide
I clutch this knife to take your life
Bloody murder on my mind
Make it look like suicide

So I...
...I take this knife...
...To take my life...
(Make it look like suicide)
I can’t go on...

So soon...
...I will be gone...
...Already gone...
(Make it look like suicide)
I can’t go, go on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
