Lyrics for Love Like Blood

We must play our lives like soldiers in the field The life is short, I'm running faster all the time Strength and beauty destined to decay So cut the rose in full bloom Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Everyday through all frustration and despair Love and hate fight with burning hearts Till legends live and man is God again And self-preservation rules the day no more Oh, we must dream of promised lands and fields That's never fade in season As we move towards no end we learn to die Red tears are shed on gray Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Till the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood
