From the recording War We Call Love
“Blood of Our Words” bleeds emotion through every lyric - the sound of love turned battlefield. It’s raw, haunting, and deeply human where passion cuts as sharply as truth, and every apology leaves a scar. This dark cinematic alt-pop ballad captures the breaking point between love and destruction… and the ache of still wanting to stay. Track 3 of the War We Call Love Album.
Lyrics
We used to speak in silk and fire,
Now every sentence draws the wire.
You cut too deep with truth disguised,
And I bled through your quiet lies.
We’re saints with tongues of rust,
Drunk on mercy, sick with trust.
Every promise starts to hurt,
When we taste the blood of our words.
Blood of our words on the floor tonight,
Truth too sharp, and love too bright.
We curse, we cry, we damn and burn,
Still we drink the blood of our words.
Your silence rings like a loaded gun,
I’m tired of fighting what we’ve become.
We’re writing sins in veins of ink,
Saying things we shouldn’t think.
The echo’s sweet, the echo’s cruel,
We play at love but bend the rules.
In the wreckage of each verse,
I still feel you beneath the curse.
Blood of our words on the floor tonight,
Truth too sharp, and love too bright.
If we fall, let it be in fire,
Two tongues, one funeral choir.
Blood of our words — we never learn,
Still we bleed the blood of our words.
Every word we spoke was worth the hurt…
