Blood On the Mountain

Oh, when we were walking, you pointed at the mountain
Said, let's go ride around, see what happens out there
Oh, we screamed in allegiance, our hearts were burning, that is how it felt
I know, I know, I know that you are real

But every time that I reach out to touch you, nothing to feel
Oh, when we were you and I wanted you, what were you doing when I needed you
And later in the day, when we all were done carousing, we all fell down and only you and I were left
You looked at me and you said, here I've been always, I cried when you said it like that

Oh, blood on the mountain, I died, I died, I died for you
Oh, blood on the mountain, I cried a lot, I cried a lot for you
Betty was a man who called for this, Betty a man who called for this
When she caught her dress, I did not know this, I was a mess, I was a mess

Betty was a man who called for this, Betty a man who called for this
When she caught her dress, I did not know this, I was a mess, I was a mess
And they all woke up, stood around and talked, 24 running around and me and my bros alone
And they all said, one and all, would you help us God

They said, give us some shelter please, give us some food that we can eat
Give us some clothes and shoes, give us something that we cannot lose
And he looked at me, he said, where are you going son
These are the things you need to do before the sun

And when you do, look up, look up at the sky
The sun will shine behind you, no more night
And we said, give us shelter please, give us some food that we can eat
Give us shelter please, give us some food that we can eat

Ooh, blood on the mountain, I died, I died, I died for you
Ooh, blood on the mountain, I cried a lot, I cried a lot for you
