Bad Blood

Story Behind The Song

Certain people in our lives (friends and family) have taken themselves to places (emotionally or in habits/addictions) that are tearing them apart, but it has happened so gradually that they don't realize it. It is the classic scenario of waking up one day and saying "how did I let it come to this?" This is a musical representation of the mental anguish we see some of our family and friends struggle with daily.

Song Description

In this song you hear the sub-conscience talking to the person and describing that person to himself/herself. The conscience/spirit then poses the question "where did you go wrong?" as if to signify a person's own struggle with what they have become. Why did it happen? How could you let it happen?

Lyrics

Stand up and scream
Kneel down and pray
You never meant for it to be this way
Falling in deep
And crawling low
You went your own way
You had to go your own way

Life ever changed
Never more the same
You?ve grown into a beast of hate
Turning your back
Losing your soul
I think you?ve lost your wings
I?m pretty sure you?ve lost your wings

Chorus:
Oh no, where did you go wrong?
(It?s been so long I just can?t say)
You?ve got bad blood in your veins
Oh no, where did you go wrong
(It?s been too long I just don?t know)
So numb you just can?t feel the pain

This world now holds
Nothing for you
A cold look flashes on your face
It won?t be long
Your battle done
This life will fade away
All things will pass away

Chorus:
Oh no, where did you go wrong?
(It?s been so long I just can?t say)
You?ve got bad blood in your veins
Oh no, where did you go wrong
(It?s been too long I just don?t know)
You?ve got no one else to ? you?ve got no one else to blame

Chorus:
Oh no, where did you go wrong?
(It?s been so long I just can?t say)
You?ve got bad blood in your veins
Oh no, where did you go wrong
(It?s been too long I just don?t know)
Things are never gonna change
