Not My Blood Lyrics by Gates (NJ)

Bloom and Breathe

2014

Here’s my chance to break contract, to exist without the lie
That we’ll live to be something more than feeling deep inside
But I’m worth only numbers for the bearing of your pride
And I only live to be alive, I only live to be alive
You don’t know a god damn thing about me but you still tear out my heart
Like you know that everything I have within me is just waiting to start again
Here we will conform to all the faults of the past
Where you reap what we sow and our ideas aren’t ours to have
Someday you’ll get what we deserve
The profit you had never earned
Will be the deficit you cannot comprehend
And as you rake in your return
We’ll loathe the lesson never learned
That bottom lines won’t ever satisfy demand
For what could have been
