Bad Blood Lyrics
Sever the ties,
Cut me out,
And fill up the hole
That I tied and I tried and I tried to fill
Oh but I lied and I'll lie at will
Just to keep your feet off the floor
And to keep my wolves from your door
Forgive me for I am not acting myself
But these bees in my breath have to come out
Well you give me no reason to doubt your word
But I still somehow still have my reasons
And I'm sorry I don't mean to scare you at all
I'm just trying to drain all this bad blood
All this bad blood
All my bad blood
Well I slashed your tires
And I locked your doors
So no one gets out
But there's a rupture to the structure
Of this house that we built
And I fucked it yeah I fucked it and I fucked it until
Those wolves they took all they could
Forgive me for I am not acting myself
But these bees in my breath have to come out
Well you give me no reason to doubt your word
But I still somehow still have my reasons
I'm sorry, I don't mean to scare you at all
I'm just trying to drain all this bad blood
All this bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
As I walk down he road of old St. Augustine
I recall a choir singing in some orchard
Well the tighter you hold, yeah they're still gonna go
Until all you remember is the courtship
Well I know I was far from perfect
But I was just dying to drain all my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
Cut me out,
And fill up the hole
That I tied and I tried and I tried to fill
Oh but I lied and I'll lie at will
Just to keep your feet off the floor
And to keep my wolves from your door
But these bees in my breath have to come out
Well you give me no reason to doubt your word
But I still somehow still have my reasons
And I'm sorry I don't mean to scare you at all
I'm just trying to drain all this bad blood
All this bad blood
All my bad blood
And I locked your doors
So no one gets out
But there's a rupture to the structure
Of this house that we built
And I fucked it yeah I fucked it and I fucked it until
Those wolves they took all they could
But these bees in my breath have to come out
Well you give me no reason to doubt your word
But I still somehow still have my reasons
I'm sorry, I don't mean to scare you at all
I'm just trying to drain all this bad blood
All this bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood
I recall a choir singing in some orchard
Well the tighter you hold, yeah they're still gonna go
Until all you remember is the courtship
Well I know I was far from perfect
But I was just dying to drain all my bad blood
All my bad blood
All my bad blood

This feels like another song by them about mental illness. He is running away from someone because he is sick and knows that he will hurt them.
I think the whole song cane be summed up by these lines "Forgive me for I am not acting myself But these bees in my breath have to come out" He isn't himself, but he needs to get all these negative emotions (the stinging bees) out.
You feel bad for the author at first, but them you have to think about the person he is doing this too. He needs to get rid of the bad blood, but at what cost to the person on the other end.
