Fresh Blood

I wish that I could be nicer
I wish I could make wishes come true
I wish that I could be wiser
I wish I did as I say I do
I need some fresh blood coursing through my veins again
I need some fresh sounds in my ear
Break the bone and set it straight
Repeat it 'till it grows back right
Repeat 'till I don't have to anymore

I wish that I could see the future
I wish that I could see how this ends
When you're looking at life through rose-colored glasses
All the read flags just look like flags
I need some fresh blood coursing through my veins again
I need some fresh sounds in my ear
Kill the flowers, save the seeds
Plant them where the sun can see
Create the world I wanna leave

You've got a list of reasons to be leaving when it's your turn to go
Got a burning in your throat that wants to be drowned
And an indent where your head should go
If you don't put yourself to bed then I don't know who will
If I don't put an end to this
I don't think that anyone will

The sell-by date was a year ago
And I'm starting to feel ill
If I don't put an end to this then I don't know who will
Things were good until they stopped
Cuz I couldn't make you something that you're not
If I don't put an end to this then I don't know who will

You've got a list of reasons to be leaving when it's your turn to go
Got a burning in your throat that wants to be drowned
And an indent where your head should go
If you don't put yourself to bed then I don't know who will
If I don't put an end to this
I don't think that anyone will
