Blood on the Mind Lyrics by The Dead South

Chains & Stakes

2024

[Intro]
I'm telling you to explain
Cause now you're playing my game
If you don't do what I say
I'm gonna throw you
In the river, someday
[Verse 1]
See me floating down the river
That's where my body does lie
It sure was a cold September
With blood on everybody's mind
See my body on the shoreline
My thoughts are spilling in the stream
Picking strings all together
But everybody knows their scene
[Chorus]
What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night?
What did they do to thе music man
When they tried to silеnce him that night?
[Verse 2]
Can you see it in the stars now
That you ain't actin' right
Your mind's been poisoned by the weather
The people and all of those lies
Don't listen to the wind blow
Cause it ain't being very kind
Follow the path of all the others
So they can have their justice tonight
[Chorus]
What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night?
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night?
[Verse 3]
What did they put in the water that night
Cause he's lying here dead on cold ice
It don't matter what he had to say
Because they already cut him down today
It don't matter what he had to say
Because they already cut him down today
[Chorus]
What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night?
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night?
What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night?
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night?
When they tried to silence him that night
