Bloodflows Lyrics

Shotgun poetry
Crack the whip again, and make me see
Sharpen your knives for me
Infiltrate the mind, the body
Body

Contract killer prose
Calmly walks away as blood flows

Open, the wound grows
Melts away, the water froze

My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
Cause my love, my love, my love don't love me

Contract killer prose
Calmly walks away as blood flows

Open, the wound grows
Melts away, the water froze

My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
Cause my love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
My love, my love, my love don't love me
Cause my love, my love, my love don't love me
Cause my love, my love, my love don't love me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The song starts soothing and slow, in a smooth mellow tempo, blending SOHN’s hauntingly delicate voice with the rhythmic elements that remain mostly in the background, almost eerily so, like he’s accepted his beloved doesn’t reciprocate his feelings and there’s nothing he can do about it, especially in his “weakened” state (blood loss). But toward the middle it builds to a spine tingling crescendo, picking up in intensity and snapping into an angry synth groove, reflecting his state of mind. He’s angry and hurt, and his lover doesn’t seem to care, building to a climactic finish.
