Bad blood, rivers run dry

Thunder comes and the children cry

Bad blood, making me shake

Running through my veins, bad blood

Too many questions, so many unanswered times

Most times the finger points at me

In my confusion, might slip and cross the line

I'm not to blame for all you see

You can't help me, it's in my soul

Pray for mercy, nowhere else to go

Bad blood, rivers run dry

Thunder comes and the children cry

Bad blood, never can change

No one here to blame

Bad blood, older than time

Followed me down from my father's tribe

Bad blood, making me shake

Running through my veins, bad blood

In my confession, I swear and cross my heart

I stand before you what I am

Gunpowder ready, just waiting for a spark

And those before me understand

Please protect me, keep me safe

Heaven help me, save me from this fate

Bad blood, rivers run dry

Thunder comes and the children cry

Bad blood, never can change, no one here to blame

Bad blood, older than time

Followed me down from my father's tribe

Bad blood, making me shake

Running through my veins, bad blood

I'm swimming hard and fast

Against the time

Lost in a flood of ancient fire

Bad blood, rivers run dry

Thunder comes and the children cry

Bad blood, never can change, no one here to blame

Bad blood, older than time

Followed me down from my father's tribe

Bad blood, making me shake

Running through my veins

Bad blood, rivers run dry

Thunder comes and the children cry

Bad blood, never can change, no one here to blame

Bad blood, older than time

Followed me down from my father's tribe

Bad blood, making me shake

Running through my veins, bad blood
