Blood on Our Hands Lyrics

I am leaving while you turn away
In the basement is where I'm going to stay
There is blood in all the things I say
Will you hate me if I stay this way?
From the bedroom, where we're running from
There's a sequel to the things I've done
You're a women, we both know it's true
By the things that I have done to you

There is blood on all the shoes you've worn
From the people you've been stepping on
There is blood in all the things you say
I won't hate you if you go away

There is blood on our hands again
From the bedroom is where we will
Bring it back to the start again
Bring it back to the love we had
(Repeat)

I am leaving while you turn away
In the basement is where I'm going to stay
From the bedroom, where we're running from
There's a sequel to the things I've done

There is blood on our hands again
From the bedroom is where we will
Bring it back to the start again
Bring it back to the love we had
(Repeat)

Ok, my interpretation of this song is a bit different from everyone else's, but eh.. Their relationship isnt working out, because both people are guilty (or ''have blood on their hands'') of doing something.

''From the bedroom, where we're running from There's a sequel to the things I've done'' --that kind of gave me the impression that the dude was sleeping with other people

''There is blood on all the shoes you've worn From the people you've been stepping on'' --pretty self-explanitory; shes a bitch to other people.

In the end, they've both done some wrong, but they want to fix their fuck-up relationship, which was corrupted by being unfaithful and bitchy.

Ahaha, the piano scarf is a classic. Love their videos.

"There is blood on our hands again - From the bedroom is where we will bring it back to the start again, bring it back to the love we had" - Seems that this song is about him devirginizing a girl and feeling guilty and wishing he could start over because their relationship just went down the drain.

the video is really good. anyone else like the very end of the song? with the drums/weird beat?

Cover art for Blood on Our Hands lyrics by Death from Above 1979

yah clairebaby i have to agree that beat at the very end of the song is quite catchy, after watching the whole video and it comes to that beat, it instills a sense of realization of one's actions, fits the descending mood very well

yea i think this about deflowering a girl. Why do all of DFA1979 songs seem to be blatantly about sex? I dont know, but who cares?

In the first verse, he's trying to avoid her, and he's hurting her with words (because when you bleed, you hurt). They've been avoiding the bedroom, obviously, from them falling out or they're sleeping around with other people. The guy has done more than one bad thing, and the woman is obviously very hurt.

Second verse, the woman is hurting other people, by screwing them over and the guy just wants her out of his life.

It seems that the guy wants to get back together with the girl, even after all the bad shit they've done. Anyway, I love all their songs, but this is my favorite as of current.
