Lyrics for The Blood Is Love

I saw you, in a way Beyond figure out These lines of life Have been drawn and can't be removed Our eyes is all it took to know Open up your eyes Deep blue, glassy lake And swim till water and sky Now are one, out of two Oh, my bloodshot eyes Open up your mouth Touch your lips to mine That we may make a kiss That can pierce through death and survive Your words have branded my mind Still I hold your hand Wrapped as if a ring We of flesh and blood Are only carrying It's so hard to... well, you know The seed waits for the reaper to sow Every breath an art The dignity to learn it Can strain and break your heart Take all your pieces home You ask when you're alone, "What is love?" The blood is love
