Her Name in Blood Lyrics
Mother Mary, bury me in a place they'll never find
I kill only what I love and what I love was never mine
Suffocate you outta me, you're the darkest of my sins
You're burning through my head, don't know where I begin and where you end
Your breathless violence open veins in silence and devotion,
sacred and divine
In this love that makes me it's the hurt that moves me to betray you
every time you pull me near
Give it away, give it away, ride this bitch to hell
And blow a kiss
When you only think of me
Hold my hand and fuck away this blankness of expression
And all sorrows in between
Her name in blood and her eyes on me
Her deepest secret lies in front of me
A whisper now is all that remains of me
You're the center of my unholy shrine
Scar tissue in time you're all mine
You're the last hint of self-control
My last chance just walked out the door
Drown out your artery, straight through a love that would never be
Her name in blood and her eyes on me
Her deepest secret lies in front of me
A whisper now is all that remains of me
This sacrament (sacrament) is our punishment (is our punishment)
I am the worst part of you
You are the only thing left to burn
I kill only what I love and what I love was never mine
Suffocate you outta me, you're the darkest of my sins
You're burning through my head, don't know where I begin and where you end
sacred and divine
In this love that makes me it's the hurt that moves me to betray you
every time you pull me near
When you only think of me
Hold my hand and fuck away this blankness of expression
And all sorrows in between
Her deepest secret lies in front of me
A whisper now is all that remains of me
Scar tissue in time you're all mine
You're the last hint of self-control
My last chance just walked out the door
Her deepest secret lies in front of me
A whisper now is all that remains of me
I am the worst part of you
You are the only thing left to burn

This song rocks.
GREAT GREAT LYRICS. so direct yet so abstract, i can't quite decide what it means. there seems to be alot of alitteration between love and religion. i guess, as it pertains to me i think it's about the obsession one can have with a person. a girl, maybe, the need for someone the way certain people need faith in a religion. "what i love was never mine", the struggle of wanting to matter to someone you cant seem to forget while not being sure of one's on convictions towards that person. loving and hating at the same time, adoration and abuse. this song seems to jump back and forth between the emotions of caring about some one and hurting them at the same time "your the darkest of my sins" "in this love that makes me it's the hurt that moves me to betray you" maybe a song from the guilty conciance.
i am the worst part of you and you are the only thing left to burn... it's such a good song,,,it rocks!
i agree a lot with cyanide2060 (although i dont think alliteration is the right word...). as with many lyrics of strung out, this song def has to do with loving someone and then hating themselves and that person for it. not choosing to be obsessed with this person but not being able to do anything about it. fantastical and twisted dreams of what to do to this person. thoughts for this person completely consuming yer existance.
Yea this song is awesome, its true sometimes too. When you really like someone and they don't feel the same way about you, you can find yourself getting feelings of hatred towards them. But i do love this song especially this line: "Give it away, give it away, ride this bitch to hell, and blow a kiss."
This song is about cheating on your girlfriend and getting caught and hating yourself for it!
Wow. My whole interpretation of this song wasn't about relationships or a woman at all. After reading the lyrics I thought he was talking about heroin. That's just me though...
amazing riff, great scream-along chorus. clearly about a girl but so vague - not an easy one to understand. help ppl!
This is S.O's hardest song to decipher in my view. It could be what you said. But it could also talk about a girl who blows herself away with her sexual behaviour and feels guilty because she has a religious background; this sense of guilt brings her to do the same things again to punish herself...maybe, don't know...anyway it's about these essays...
Violent obsessive love. What intrigues me about this song more than the words themselves is how he says them--most metal moves between singing and screaming, but in this song it's such a duality that it sounds like the same person feels two different ways about the same thing.
