Bad Blood

Bad Blood



I stand back and hide within the shadows
I watched your dirty deeds unfold
You showed no remorse or shame for the life you destroyed
And you have the nerve to call me bad blood
Unworthy of human touch or love

I stand in the shadows
Just waiting for my time for revenge
The Cumberland River will overflow with Blood
Your blood
My unworthy human touch and hatred will rule
You created me
Bad Blood

For every time you pierced my soul
I rip yours out.
Every time you kicked me in the gut
I’ll gut you where you stand
Every time you spoke harsh
I’ll remove your tongue
For every pain you’ve caused
I give it back
Don’t hear you
Don’t hear you laughing
What did you say?

I stand in the shadows
Watching and waiting for you
My dagger awaits to shed your blood
I wait to watch your blood flow
My ears listen for your plea
I wait to see the fear in your eyes
I wait to taste your tears
Will they be real?

You stole my soul and compassion
You took my worthiness and innocents
Turned my happiness into sadness
Took my light
Placed me in darkness
You stripped me of my pride
Left me naked and shameless
You left me cold and hungry
Alone in this world
Without a sole to care
You created me
Bad Blood

You pointed your finger
Whispered, laughed and joked behind my back
You laughed at my dreams
Pipe dreams were they?
Here I sit living that dream
That dream you said was a pipe dream

Society branded unwanted children
Couples weep for their shame, unable to bear their own
Many rather live as couples
Not sure what they’re getting in the adoption world
Bad Blood

You cast me out among you
Now I cast you out
No more harsh words spoken
No more hearing I am a failure
No more tears will I shed
No more rips from my harden soul
No more love to give
No compassion will you find
Bad Blood
