Did you see the blood trail?
It led me here, it led me here.
It guided me without fail
and now steady I persevere.
Did you smell the blood trail?
It made me who I am.
Wonder what does that entail?
Well, I'm the pearl and that's the clam.
Did you touch the blood trail
near the roots of that tree?
It's a bloody tear of the veil,
now you know what I see.
Did you taste the blood trail?
Feel the blood in your mouth.
Now you know why my words are frail.
This tortuous journey has gone south.
Did you hear the blood trail?
I left it here, I left it here.
I lie in my grave but you didn't hear
it from me it's the coffin's last nail.
Do you understand the blood trail?
It's a forceful deal.
Do you trust the blood trail?
Unspoken pact I had to seal.
Do you believe the blood trail?
I left it here but it's real.
If no one believes the reveal
how can I ever leave the blood trail?
