Bloodclock Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse: Francesco Paoli] Awake, alone, paralyzed The blood in my mouth tastes like defeat Wounded, swollen, bleeding I'm hanging on this wall like a crucifix Pieces of bones scattered everywhere I wrap my left arm around my neck I feel my legs no more While adrenaline is blasting my bursting heart [Pre-Chorus: Francesco Paoli] Drop by drop, all my blood Turns this granite to red Tick tock, like a clock Till my veins are emptied And the wind plucks a harp While my soul disappears But I'm not dead yet! [Chorus: Francesco Paoli] I can see my life flashing before my eyes I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave But I'm not dead yet All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today On this rope I must fight tooth and nail Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself I'm not dead yet! [Pre-Chorus: Francesco Paoli] Not yet, the countdown has started for the bloodclock Broken is the hourglass, exsanguinating till the last drop! [Chorus: Francesco Paoli] I can see my life flashing before my eyes I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave But I'm not dead yet All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today On this rope I must fight tooth and nail Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself I'm not dead yet! [Bridge: Veronica Bordacchini] I can be cruel sometimes Let you touch the sky or make you fall! Watch you, strive for peace of mind Hunting high and low till you're gone! [Guitar Solo] [Bridge: Veronica Bordacchini] Future is so unpredictable Just hold on to your hopes [Outro: Francesco Paoli] I'm not dead yet! Mark my words 'cause I'm not dead yet! And I'm not dying today! [Breathing] I'm not dead yet! Fuck!
