Bloodstain Songtext
von Brown Horse

Once dried you can never try and hide a bloodstain
I swore it would never be the same again
You said it doesn′t look all that different to me
Feet wet in the mudflats looking out past the estuary

Call it distraction, call it despair
No matter what you call it you can feel it when it's there
Drifted on the low tide, now it′s hell bent for to stay
Lay my head down, quit this, set my rest to lay

Once dried you can never try and hide a bloodstain
I swore it would never be the same again
You said it doesn't look all that different to me
Feet wet in the mudflats looking out past the estuary


As the setting sun fades the birds make their escape
I hold shallow breaths in this slow beating chest
It's not like I expected, where on earth is all the rest?
Shark teeth that speak to me waiting in the depths

Once dried you can never try and hide a bloodstain
I swore it would never be the same again
You said it doesn′t look all that different to me
Feet wet in the mudflats looking out past the estuary

Standing alone out on a sand spit
Cut off by the sea
I didn′t really mean to commit to this
Still the water moves closer to me

Once dried you can never try and hide a bloodstain
I swore it would never be the same again
You said it doesn't look all that different to me
Feet wet in the mudflats looking out past the estuary
