Blood and Fire

[AJOwens]

Life is quiet in suburbia
Nothing here that might disturb ya
Tidy lawns and picket fences
Nothing here to raise defenses

All the action's on TV
Watching heroes breaking free
Seeing bad guys getting shot
This is what my life is not

I feel my life becoming inessential
I feel I'm not fulfilling my potential
I feel I’m missing something existential
I feel the need to earn some street credential

Gonna get me a big ol' steak
Grill it till the juices make a lake
Flip it, turn the barbeque higher
Can't get enough of that blood and fire

Everything's so calm and boring
Just the sound of people snoring
It's so quiet you could fall asleep
Nothing here would make you weep

Should be happy, I don’t know
Wish there were somewhere I could go
Don’t know what my life is for
Maybe I need to start a war

Gonna get me a big ol' steak
Grill it till the juices make a lake
Flip it, turn the barbeque higher
Can't get enough of that blood and fire

Blood And Fire
Pigfarmer Jr

Eyes filled with fire
When she looks at me
Rising from the pyre
Of what used to be
She's out for blood
She's out for vengeance
She's jury and judge
Looking for repentance
With every heartbeat
Flames rising higher
She's out for blood
Blood and fire
Blood and fire
Blood and fire

Sparks fill the air
When she looks at me
I melt in her stare
Consumed by the heat
I feel the wrath
Of her attention
It run to ash
In apprehension
With every heartbeat
Flames rising higher
She's out for blood
Blood and fire
Blood and fire
Blood and fire

I shaved my beard for the last time today
Nearly took me an hour but I love my new face
And I’m glad that I did it but I wasn’t prepared
For everything that I’d find under there

I did my make up for the first time today
Only took me three tries but it turned out okay
I said “With enough practice I’ll get it right
And I am gonna be beautiful tonight”
I am gonna be beautiful tonight

Well there’s blood and there’s fire that runs through my veins
And there’s a light inside that goes out when it rains
I’m not holding my breath while I’m counting my days
But I am ready for something to change

And I painted my nails for the hundredth time
By now it’s a habit, I just let ‘em shine
When I saw my hand it sparked something within
I said “I an gonna be beautiful again,
I am gonna be beautiful again,
I am gonna be beautiful again!”

Well there’s blood and there’s fire that runs through my veins
And there’s a light inside that goes out when it rains
I’m not holding my breath while I’m counting my days
But I am ready for something to change
I am ready for something to change
I am ready for something to change

There’s a darkness hiding in us all
Sleeping and dreaming
There’s a sickness living in our souls
Plotting and scheming

Blood and Fire
Blood and Fire

There’s a memory just beyond our grasp
Kicking and screaming
There’s a monster waiting to get out
Prowling and seething

Blood and Fire
Blood and Fire

Blood and Fire
Blood and Fire
Blood and Fire
Blood and Fire
