Stains
Am I Blood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ceiling swings over nonexistent
Skin becomes inflamed
Shortcut narrows a distance stays
Absence from this meaning
Seems to suck out the liquid thoughts
Rain irrigates the words
Hollow ground my escape and safe
Must be disagreeable

How low they could flow
One deeper level on an unspoiled hole
Face behind the attack
Of isolated, selfish and me

Looking still into sentenced mind
Does it know how to care
Guest of honour has a slave's disgrace
Captivity of fame

Tears fall from their eyes
Ordinary things are superficial fakes
Celebrating above my talent
Was it good enough to be my tale

Stains of my grave
Still remain
I'm the one
In this room

Sinking breath totally gone low
Disconnected dawn
Pretending they were insane with dreams
Only lies were in time

How low they could flow
One deeper level on an unspoiled hole
Face behind the attack
Of isolated, selfish and me

Stains of my grave
Still remain
I'm the one
In this room
To give my
Approval of
Indifference
I gave you something real

Stains
Of my grave
Still remain
I'm the one
In this room
To give my
Approval of
Indifference
I gave you something real
Stains
Of my grave
Still remain
I'm the one
In this room
Stains
In this room
I gave you something real




In this room
I gave you something real

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Am I Blood’s song “Stains” describe a feeling of isolation and detachment from the world around the singer. The first stanza introduces the image of a swinging ceiling and inflamed skin, which could symbolize a feeling of disorientation or physical discomfort. The shortcut that narrows the distance seems to refer to a way of cutting through the complexities of everyday life, but the absence of meaning and the loss of “liquid thoughts” suggest that this shortcut is ultimately unfulfilling.


The second stanza describes a “sentenced mind” that may know how to care, but is unable to connect with others due to a “captivity of fame” or a sense of being trapped by one’s reputation. Tears fall from “their” eyes, suggesting that the singer is an outsider to this celebration of talent and success. The final stanza describes a sinking breath and a feeling of disconnection from reality, with dreams that turn out to be lies.


Overall, the lyrics of “Stains” suggest a sense of disillusionment and isolation, as the singer struggles to find meaning in a world that seems empty and superficial.

Yes! You can purchase 35% hydrogen peroxide, and dilute on your own. It’s popular in natural food stores because of it safe cleaning alternative.
