Lyrics for Drawn to the Blood

I'm drawn to the blood The flight of a one-winged dove How? How did this happen? How? How did this happen? The strength of his arm My lover caught me off guard How? Head of a rabbit How? Head of a rabbit For my prayer has always been love What did I do to deserve this? With blood on my sleeve Delilah, avenge my grief How? God of Elijah How? God of Elijah As fire to the sun Tell me what I have done How? Heart of a dragon How? Heart of a dragon For my prayer has always been love What did I do to deserve this now? How did this happen?
