Blood On My Name by The Brothers Bright Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2012

[Verse 1]
There's a reckonin' a-comin', and it burns beyond the grave
Lead inside my belly 'cause my soul has lost its way
Oh, Lazarus, how did your debts get paid?
Oh, Lazarus, were you so afraid?

[Chorus]
When the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
With the Hounds of Hell comin' after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
When the fires, when the fires are consumin' you
And your sacred stars won't be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood
Blood on my name

[Verse 2]
Not a spell gonna be broken with a potion or a priest
When you're cursed, you're always hopin' that a prophet would be grieved
Oh, Lazarus, how did your debts get paid?
Oh, Lazarus, were you so afraid?
[Verse 3]
Can't you see I'm sorry? I will make it worth your while
Made a dead man's money, you can see it in my smile
Oh, Lazarus, how did your debts get paid?
Oh, Lazarus, were you so afraid?

[Chorus]
When the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
And the whole wide world's comin' after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
When the fires, when the fires are consuming you
And your sacred stars won't be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood
Blood on my name

[Bridge]
It won't be long
'Til I'm dead and gone
It won't be long
'Til I'm dead and gone
Watch the fires rise under my skin
Down to the bone
Scorchin' my soul
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
[Chorus]
When the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
With the Hounds of Hell comin' after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
When the fires, when the fires are consuming you
And your sacred stars won't be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name

[Chorus 2/Outro]
When the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
And the whole wide world's comin' after you
I've got blood, I've got blood
Blood on my name
