Days Are Blood

[Refrain]
The days are blood
No beginning, no end
Bleeding like a fountain pen
The days are blood

[Verse 1]
Alarm clock rips open my eyes
I'm so tired, so tired
Staring at the black spots before my eyes
Am I alive? Am I alive?
Mirror showing bloodshot eyes
It never lies, it never lies
Another day on the 9-to-5
No when's or why's, no when's or why's

[Chorus]
These days of blood, eyes of fire
The days of blood, eyes of fire
Days, days of blood, eyes of fire
The days of blood, eyes of fire

[Refrain]
The days are blood
No beginning, no end
Bleeding like a fountain pen
The days are blood

[Verse 2]
I gave at the office
I gave at the bank
I gave to my friends
I gave to my enemies
You tell me, you tell me
It's so better to give than to receive
So tell me, tell me
Why is it you that's bleeding me?

[Chorus]
These days of blood, eyes of fire
The days of blood, eyes of fire
Days, days of blood, eyes of fire, hey!
The days of blood, eyes of fire

[Bridge]
7 o'clock, got to wake up
7 o'clock, got to wake up
7 o'clock, got to wake up
7 o'clock, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Look in the mirror
Look in the mirror
Look in the mirror
Look in the mirror
Look in the mirror, see my face
Look in the mirror, see my face
See my face, see my face
See the traces of yesterday
See the traces of yesterday
See the traces of yesterday
See the traces, the traces, the traces
Of yesterday, of yesterday
Oh, for yesterday
For yesterday
Oh, for yesterday
Oh, for yesterday
Oh, for yesterday
For yesterday
For tomorrow
Oh, for tomorrow
Oh, tomorrow
Same places, same faces
No, I can't go back! I won't go back! I won't go back!
You can't make me!

[Refrain]
The days are blood
Bleeding into each other
The days are blood
And I'm drowning, help me!

[Verse 3]
And as I watch the evening news
I realize, I realize
Telling me of the day's slaughter
I realize, I realize
Spilling innards on my dreams
I realize, I realize
As I bleed cold sleep sweat
I realize:
The nights, the nights, the nights
The nights are blood too
No! The nights, the nights, the nights
The nights are blood too

[Outro]
The days of blood, eyes of fire
Days, days of blood, eyes of fire, hey!
Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!
