Cry Blood
Fractured Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you bring down your own demise.
Bring down the knife
just to end your sorry life.
I hear your cries
but they hide behind your disguise.
In your eyes,
I see boundaries now.
Pain and suffering,
The poison drips and your wounds sting.
Dirty hands claw at your face,
deliver you to a better place.
Pick the scabs that never heal,
emotions you will never feel
say goodbye to any hope,
as you hang from the rope.
Beneath the lies,
you bring down your own demise.
Bring down the knife
just to end your sorry life.
I hear your cries
but they hide behind your disguise.
In your eyes,
I see boundaries now.
Loss of all desire
your will to die grows higher and higher.
Your time is counting down
soon you'll be six underground.
Sever those vital cords, cut until you feel no more.
Watch the blood drip from your veins,
death is here coming in from the red rain
Beneath the lies,
you bring down your own demise.
Bring down the knife
just to end your sorry life.
I hear your cries
but they hide behind your disguise.
In your eyes,
I see boundaries now.
The lyrics of Fractured's song "Cry Blood" convey a powerful message about the destructive nature of lying to oneself and succumbing to pain and suffering. The first stanza describes the self-destructive behavior of someone who is hiding their true emotions behind a facade or "disguise."

The second stanza continues this theme, with references to the physical pain and emotional turmoil that the person is experiencing. The line "pick the scabs that never heal" suggests that the person is trapped in a cycle of self-harm and self-sabotage. The final line of this stanza - "as you hang from the rope" - is particularly haunting, underscoring the finality and inevitability of the person's fate.
The final stanza brings the song to a conclusion with a grim portrait of the person's descent into death. The line "death is here coming in from the red rain" is particularly powerful, using vivid imagery to describe the person's final moments.
