So the Blood Lyrics
so the blood
had run into my eye
and for awhile
i couldn't see at all
still i felt so surely cradled
from all sides
of the limbs
where used to break my fall
and soon enough
i regain my sight
in turn it took my brain
and from inside
i saw how close i was to life
and far i was from death
had run into my eye
and for awhile
i couldn't see at all
still i felt so surely cradled
from all sides
of the limbs
where used to break my fall
and soon enough
i regain my sight
in turn it took my brain
and from inside
i saw how close i was to life
and far i was from death

I feel as if this song about an accident, perhaps falling from a tree? (of the limbs where used to break my fall; surley cradled) The accident, or event, "took his sight" both figuratively and literally. The emergence of his sight then "took his brain", leaving him perhaps paralyzed spiritually or physically. With his new found sight "from the inside", (not able to express his new feelings because he is now paralyzed) he saw all that life had to offer, and that maybe the near-death accident or event led him to think of how much he had to live for despite what happened.
It's that whole the blind see better, Oedipus, truth is not sight type of literal and figurative descriptions blended in the song.
I think at least...
