Lyrics Blood - Sonata Arctica

Blood

At first you kindle life
You place it in a man
This man, he has a heart
That’s filled with fire
The man will have a wife
The wife creates the home
They multiply and so
Their hearts are filled with fear
The man creates a wall
He arms, defends them all
This fear becomes his fall
«Blood is a bodily fluid in animals that
Delivers necessary substances such as
Nutrients and oxygen to the cells and
Transports metabolic waste products
Away from those same cells»
The color of life and arrow of fear
Made flow auburn rivers in the snow
Dance the death of fading peace of mind
Kept awake by the night
Of the twilight’s cold sad weeps
What the child of Orion
Has sown his cubs will reap
The fire is out
And there’s an ominous silence
But he can see them in the dark
Under the moon, the shadows find them
Wolf — stares in your eyes
Blink first and die
Beauty and fear, of wolves and of people
There’s a cave on the hills
In the woods not so far away
Never once had he seen the descent
Of majestic gray coming this way
Now he can see those blue eyes
Burning through the darkened night
«He knows the fur, he used to love her»
Ready or not, there will be blood!
Life is a gift you have no lease for anymore
There will blood!
You will buy our blood with your own blood
You will buy our blood with your own blood
The last thing you’ll see is a
Wolf — stares in your eyes
Blink first and die
Beauty and fear within
Who’s more of a beast
A king or a priest
What do you believe?
Wolves or the people things we fear
Wolves or the people
Wolves fear the fear of the people
Think, how one fearful man can destroy this world
At first you kindle life, you place it in a man
This man, he has a heart, that’s filled with fire
The man will have a wife, the wife creates the home
They multiply and so, their hearts are filled with fear
Maybe men cannot live when their hearts are not
Filled with fire instead of love
For fear is a powerful thing
Maybe only the might and
The power of fear maintains our life
We function when it’s controlled by denial
The wolf in your eyes blinks first and dies
Beauty and fear, the wolves and the people
Those hills have no eyes, but they hear your cries
Beauty and fear, the blood, the wolves and the people
