It Was Written In Blood

"I love the sound of breaking bones" Right at the end. Creepy.

It's about russian poet Sergei Aleksandrovich Esenin's suicide note which he wrote in his own blood. They pretty much copied the note word for word except for the "It was written in blood" part. Also, "Like roses we blossom then die. We fall apart" is theirs. Most of the rest is just his suicide note with some repeated lines. The original note is here: http://allpoetry.com/poem/8511209-Goodbye__my_friend__goodbye-by-Sergei_Aleksandrovich_Esenin

If anyone actually bothered to read the inside of the Suicide Season album cover they would have the read that all lyrics on the album were written by Oliver Sykes with the EXCEPTION of It Was Written In Blood. The lyrics from this song are extracts from the Russian poet, Sergei Esenin's, suicide note - which he happened to write with his own blood. This really isn't any input towards the song, but I just wanted to clear up all the insulting the of the lyrics and stuff cos it was really bugging me :) Though now I think about it, it's a really sad, creepy kinda song once you think about the lyrics being from an actual suicide note :|

"Goodbye, my friend, goodbye. My dear one, you are in my breast. A predestined parting Promises a reunion ahead.

Goodbye, my friend, without a touch of hand, without a word, Don't be sad and do not frown, Dying is nothing new in this life, And living, of course, isn't any newer."

Thats the suicide note this song was based on

Why does everyone think that every single song is about a relationship? I'm not saying that it isn't but think outside the box a lil bit. When i come to this website to look at what the song might mean, it's not very useful when all i read is "It's obviously about a relationship". And I know that a lot of bands write about past relationships but thats not what it's all about. I mean if you're a real Bring Me The Horizon fan you've read their other lyrics and seen what he says about past relationships and he doesn't put it lightly. Just think about how it may not be about a relationship. Just because it's about suicide doesn't mean it's about a relationship. I think it's more about a friend commiting suicide and he's starting to question the point of life because we live then die, hense "We blossom we die!". But I may be wrong. Who knows besides the band.

Some people are right about the meaning of this song, and most are far off. the meaning of the song is this. all the parts of the song minus the "it was written in blood" part are extrracts from a suicide note written by the great russian poet sergei esenin. He slit his wrists and wrote the note in his own blood, hence the name "it was written in blood. So he turned his suicide note into a poem. Just so you know this is right xD i have the cd and it says it on the inside.<3

ye first comment i think it's about a break up with some thing or some one, maybe =D

another awesome song by BMTH. I like the song, but I have a version with horrible quality :(

when it says..

It was written in blood It was written in blood It was written in blood Oh my god, it was written in blood It was written in blood It was written in blood Oh my god! It was written... in blood

pretty sure the line is supposed to say on a suicide note.

awesome song.

third line is actually

"It was preordained that we should part"
