Lyrics Kevin Morby – Bloodsucker

I am trying to make peace with where I am
Blood on the wall with a knife stuck to my hand
I am trying to make peace inside today
I am trying but it’s not working

I am trying to make peace inside a war
It’s been so long I don’t know what we’re fighting for
I am trying to make peace but not at all
Sent to mud from the blood
Sent to mud from the blood

I am trying to make peace with where you are
So very near my dear but oh so very far
A million miles while you’re one step to my left
All is gone, all is left
All is gone, nothing left

And it’s a bloodsucker
And it’s a bloodsucker oh
And it’s a bloodsucker

There is a piece hidden deep inside my mind
It’s hard to reach but I see it from time to time
There is my mother, I am cradled in her arms
I am free, I am safe from all that harms
I am free from where you are

I am trying to make peace inside today
Blood on the floor with a knife tied to my name
I am trying to make peace with who I am
An honest man, an honest man
An honest man, an honest man

And it’s a bloodsucker
And it’s a bloodsucker oh
And it’s a bloodsucker
