"swim in the blood" Lyrics

jesus suffered so do we
yet explanations vacant
lots of nothing, outlooks bleak
blame the rapture, blame the beast
the lurid demon with the seven crowns
the devils teeth

our shirts are white
and they'll glow in the haze
we'll take a swim in the blood anyway

oh Lord we'll go
oh Lord we'll go

I've had it with fucking faith
now mind your business
stop obsessing about the fucking gays
blame the rapture, blame the beast
the lurid demon with the seven crowns
the devils teeth

our shirts are white
and they'll glow in the haze
we'll take a swim in the blood anyway

oh Lord we'll go
oh Lord we'll go away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
