Mary Gauthier - Blood Is Blood Lyrics

Clouds are spreading like bruises on the evening sky
I walk the streets alone again tonight
It starts to rain, still I search each passing face

Blood is blood, blood don't wash away
Blood is blood, blood don't wash away

When I was a child they told me she loved me too much
She didn't keep me 'cause my mother loved me too much
She left without a trail, she left without a trail

Blood is blood and blood don't wash away
Blood is blood and blood don't wash away

I got a heart that's ripped, I got a soul that's torn
I got a hole in me like I was never born

Blood is thicker than water, blood is bound by God
I don't know who I am, I don't know who I'm not
I don't know my name, I can't find my place

Blood is blood, blood don't wash away
Blood is blood, blood don't wash away
Blood is blood, blood don't wash away
Blood is blood and blood don't wash away

I walk the streets alone again tonight
