Bad Blood
Phinehas Lyrics

Grieve that your body’s so worm eaten inside
Feel sadness about the decay and corruption that is taking place inside your physical being

Crawling with infection, fed by your lies
Your body is infested and sustained by dishonesty and deceit

Drop into the pit you dug with your pride
Fall into the hole that you created for yourself through your arrogance and conceit

Now you’re nothing but a slave
You have become a servant to your own faults and flaws

You polish yourself as if you were a monument
You try to make yourself look impressive and important like a monument or statue

Reaching high like a tower to hell and the ground concedes
You strive for great heights, but your path leads to destruction and even the earth gives way beneath you

Pulled from the earth like rotting roots
You are uprooted like diseased and decaying plant roots

Purge the demons draining your veins
Cleanse yourself of the evil influences that are consuming you from within

Pride in your heart deceives you
Your arrogant self-belief causes you to be deceived and misled

Dragged from the depths of a dying world
You are forcefully removed from a world that is decaying and coming to an end

Keep your teeth before your tongue
Choose your words carefully and think before you speak

Or you’ll claw for divinity
Otherwise, you will become desperate and try to achieve a god-like status

Your filthy rags: a disgusting crown
Your dirty and tattered garments are a symbol of your shameful reign

The offspring of an unhealed wound
Your poor state is a result of a wound that has not been properly treated or resolved

You wear your skin like a scoured corpse
You present yourself as if your flesh has been scraped and stripped like a dead body

After you heave you return like a dog
After you have gone through a difficult experience, you come back to the same behaviors like a loyal but unchanging dog

You had love but your heart is not your own
You may have once experienced love, but you have lost control of your own heart

Grace is not beyond you but you walked away
You had the opportunity for divine help and intervention, but you refused and chose to leave it behind

The heavens will expose you…
The truth about your actions and nature will be revealed by the divine realm

Hell bent on destruction
You are strongly determined to cause harm and destruction

Hell bent on escape
You are highly motivated to find a way out of your dire situation

Show us there’s nowhere to hide
Demonstrate and prove that there is no escape or cover from the consequences of your actions

Show us fear
Express the terror and dread that your ways and deeds have caused
