LYRICS

Blood is the new Black
Am I this person?
Am I blessed?
Am I cursed?
Can I take on this burden?
Or will my fake smile worsen?
My past being so tragic
Happiness seems so plastic
Money can't ever take away
The picture of his face
You can take away my identity
But you can't erase the rest of me
When I close my eyes he's next to me
He already pulled apart the best of me
A new life
A new start
A new face
Such a work of art

It's time I start to face the fact
Blood is the new black

The Asylum must fall
And the Doctor must die

Time to burn this place down
Burn it down to the ground
There is no holding back
This is an arson attack

That's for everything that they did to me
For killing every bit of hope and my dignity
For the inmate who sat in the cell next to me
Who never returned from her lobotomy
Why am I still here, had the nurses forgotten me?
Or was I just cast out like I'm rotten meat?
Sent out through the front with a knife in my back
Blood is the new Black

We’re Just good for nothing murderers
They don't care if they be hurting us
We're just Laboratory mice
Not human in their eyes
They feel justified but I would say that they are worse than us

They're murderers
Now Our saviour has returned to us
The whole buildings in a blaze

We're free from the cage
It’s time to tear this place up
This is our chance to escape

Get up and kill
We won't be chained
Break the walls
We will see the sunrise

Every single M………F……… who stuck their wires in my brain
Never gonna see tomorrow I will make them feel the pain
I feel when I walk a path of broken bones and splintered teeth
Of sanguine taste and true belief
I take a name badge out of a filled black body bag
Wear it round my neck like a dog tag
This is a war
Let the walls come down
Inmates free to raid the town
Paint our faces
Like M………F………… Beetlejuice clowns
I release you from your cells
Now go raise hell and pay it back
Time to paint this town red
Because blood is the new black

#94 here, I swear I'm wearing a poncho the next time I see Ward XVI to keep the blood spatter down to manageable. The headline set at Breaking Bands is going to be messy, love it!!
