Blood To Bleed Lyrics

This place rings with echoes of
Lives once lived but now are lost
Time spent wondering about tomorrow
I don’t care if we lose it all tonight
Up in flames, burning bright
Warming the air of the world

“I don’t love you anymore” is all I remember you telling me
Never have I felt so cold
I have no more blood to bleed
As my heart has been draining into the sea

Since I’ve taken your footsteps
Getting me closer to what is left
Of the dreams of what I once claimed to know

Within my bones this resonates
Boiling blood will circulate
Could you tell me again what you did this for?

“I don’t love you anymore” is all I remember you telling me
Never have I felt so cold
I have no more blood to bleed
As my heart has been draining into the sea

Still I wait
With a hope inside of me (inside of me)
So still (so still) I wait (I wait)
Until again we meet
Until again we meet

Within my bones this resonates
Boiling blood will circulate
Could you tell me again what you did this for?

“I don’t love you anymore” is all I remember you telling me
Never have I felt so cold
I have no more blood to bleed
As my heart has been draining into the sea

Still I wait
With a hope (so still) inside of me (I wait)
So still (a hope) I wait (inside of me)

I relate to this song being about a really bad breakup.

"This place rings with echoes of Lives once lived but now are lost Time spent wondering about tomorrow..."

Being in an apartment after he/she leaves. You think back to all the routines, the time spent with that other person. And you constantly think about tomorrow... does it get worse or better?

"“I don’t love you anymore” is all I remember you telling me Never have I felt so cold I have no more blood to bleed As my heart has been draining into the sea"

To sit there and have someone tell you they don't love you when you love them more than anything is the worst. You really feel like something is dying inside.

"Since I’ve taken your footsteps Getting me closer to what is left Of the dreams of what I once claimed to know"

To me that is saying... your taking that other person's road of just not caring, letting go. You give up caring just trying to find something normal again.

"Within my bones this resonates Boiling blood will circulate Could you tell me again what you did this for?"

He/She's pissed. Everything you thought normal, all your plans/dreams were torn away when the other person left. All you really want to know now is why?

I can really relate to this song. I really got into Rise Against because of it when my wife and I divorced. Great song whatever your opinion on the meaning though.

obviously about a break up

Cover art for Blood To Bleed lyrics by Rise Against

A ballad in my eyes.

I wouldn't be so quick to assume It's about a break-up. Their songs tend to have more practicaly (ie political/social) meanings.

they have a lot of love songs.

agree with you, dud, but i think this one does haveta do a bit with a girl..

Still I wait With a hope inside of me (inside of me) So still (so still) I wait (I wait) Until again we meet Until again we meet

it just fits

Cover art for Blood To Bleed lyrics by Rise Against

This is an amazing song. Rise Against are wicked. This song, IMO, is about a breakup, as said before, and you cannot convince me otherwise unless there is a quote of one of the band members stating otherwise.

At their show near Valentines day they said: "So, how was your Valentines Day? Well, I spent mine with three men. Well, here's a song about when your heart is broken" Then they started playing Blood to Bleed. THESE GUYS ARE AWESOME!

Cover art for Blood To Bleed lyrics by Rise Against

This is one of my fav songs - rise against is fucken amazing! And its definitely about a break-up.

some of the lyrics are wrong - in the 2nd verse it's: Steps, I take in your footsteps Aren't getting me closer to what is left

And in the chorus its: But I've no more blood to bleed Coz my heart has been draining into the sea
