All He Wants (Is My Blood) Songtext

von Sons of Perdition

As the lamplight grows so dim
We no longer hear from Him
All He wants is my blood
And the darkness closes in
For we are all awash in sin
All He wants is my blood
All He wants is my blood
Lord, all you want is my sweet blood (my sinner's blood)
Though my body stinks of sin
Thou hast sworn to let me in
O, all He wants is my blood
As this poor old body shivers
And the crops grow blight and wither
All He wants is my blood
Though my family's in the ground
You won't hear me make a sound
'Cause all He wants is my blood
All He wants is my blood
Lord, all you want is my sweet blood (my sinner's blood)
Though my body stinks of sin
Thou hast sworn to let me in
O, all He wants is my blood
And as on my bed I lay
I feel my soul slipping away
All He wants is my blood
I see angels through the heat
Though the devil's at my feet
And all He wants is my blood
All He wants is my blood
Lord, all you want is my sweet blood (my sinner's blood)
Though my body stinks of sin
Thou hast sworn to let me in
O, all He wants is my blood
