Diving into the depths of human emotion, this poignant track explores the themes of loneliness, regret, and substance dependence. The lyrics reveal a struggle with alcohol as a means to escape from painful memories and feelings. The recurring phrase "Tell me when it kicks in" seems to refer to the numbing effect of alcohol, which the narrator anxiously awaits. Moreover, there's a sense of remorse for past actions symbolized by "scars upon her broken hearted dove". The persistent voices calling out indicate an inner turmoil that can't be silenced easily. Overall, this song beautifully captures the raw pain of battling personal demons while yearning for solace and forgiveness.
Bloodstream
Lyrics
I've been spinning now for time
Couple women by my side
I got sinnin' on my mind
Sipping on red wine
I've been sitting here for ages
Ripping out the pages
How'd I get so faded
How'd I get so faded
Oh no no don't leave me lonely now
If you loved me how'd you never learn
Ooh colored crimson in my eyes
One or two could free my mind
This is how it ends
I feel the chemicals burn in my bloodstream
Fading out again
I feel the chemicals burn in my bloodstream
So tell me when it kicks in (hmm, hmm, hmm)
Well tell when it kicks in (hmm, hmm, hmm)
I've been looking for a lover
Thought I'd find her in a bottle
God make me another one
I'll be feeling this tomorrow
Lord forgive me for the things I've done
I was never meant to hurt no one
And I saw scars upon her broken hearted dove
Oh no no don't leave me lonely now
If you loved me how'd you never learn
Ooh, colored crimson in my eyes
One or two could free my mind
This is how it ends
I feel the chemicals burn in my bloodstream
Fading out again
I feel the chemicals burn in my bloodstream
So tell me when it kicks in (hmm, hmm, hmm)
Well tell me when it kicks in (hmm, hmm, hmm)
Well tell when it kicks in
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
Tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken hearted
Tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken hearted
Tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Brokenhearted
Tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken hearted
So tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken hearted
Tell me when it kicks in
And I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken hearted
