Benediction Lyrics by Exiting The Fall

Bloodline

2011

[Intro: Kevin Klein]
My brother, you found the fast way out
The needle, it must be loud
Loud enough to drown the sounds of shouts
And solemn regrets in your mind
Oh brother, where was I?

[Verse 1: Matt Vacaro]
The taste of those lullaby lips
Lacing up veins from the touch of its kiss
Oh, how you danced for those smooth fingertips
And brother, where was I?
When you asked for a man
To listen to your side in the argument of life?
Oh brother, where was I?

[Verse 2: Matt Vacaro]
If I am my brother’s keeper
All the more I play the reaper
And I watched you die and I didn't pull back the knife
If I am my brother’s keeper
Might as well dig his grave deeper
Death doesn't sting, but it sure won't hold back its bite

[Chorus: Kevin Klein]
I do what I want, you pay
Silently suffering (I do what I want)
You smiled wide, but you were hiding (You pay)
A lost mind in plain sight (I do what I want)
Oh brother, where was I? (You pay)

[Spoken: Matt Vacaro]
A massive range of thoughts and shame
Surround the past that's haunting me
Of where I have a hand to reach
And one extended back at me
Yet do I care to look and see
Those eyes that scream, "Come back to me?"
Yet do I see those eyes that scream
"Come back to save the life in me, life in me?"

[Outro: Matt Vacaro]
What is fire without the flame?
What is life without Jesus’ name?
What is fire without the flame?
What is life without Jesus’ name?
What is fire without the flame?
What is life without Jesus’ name? (Jesus’ name)
What is fire without the flame?
What is life without Jesus?
