BLOOD
The Black Stones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While were falling down who knew
To hurt would feel this good
Move along so far from home
My mistakes go on and on in truth
I hate to be alone
It's in my blood and its in my bones
When I'm gone I hope you'll understand
When I get home I will make amends
When Tuesday comes I'll be gone again
And when I'm gone I hope you'll understand
I hope you'll understand
It's in my blood I miss your touch
And I miss your smile everything
You do it drives me wild but
You know it's the way it has to be
Another day and another round
I miss the friends in my hometown
But in truth it's the reason that I leave
It's in my blood
And it's in my bones its in my heart
And soul and when I'm gone
I hope you'll understand
When I get home I will make amends
When Tuesday comes I'll be gone again
And when I'm gone I hope you'll understand
I hope you'll understand
Would you love me the same
If I never started dreaming
Are we better this way
Ever since I started leaving
It's in my blood
And it's in my bones
In my heart and it's in my soul
And when I'm gone I hope you'll understand
When I get home I will make amends
When Tuesday comes I'll be gone again
And when I'm gone I hope you'll understand
I hope you'll understand
It's in my blood
It's in my bones
The lyrics of "Blood" by The Black Stones convey the feelings of someone who is falling apart while being away from home. The singer acknowledges their mistakes but states it's in their blood and bones to leave and travel. They miss their hometown and their loved one's touch, but they know that leaving is the right thing for them. The heart-wrenching lyrics ask if the loved one would still love them if they had never left to chase their dreams. The singer hopes that their loved ones will understand their need to travel and promises to come back and make amends.
The song's central theme is the struggle between following one's passion and maintaining relationships with loved ones. The lyrics indicate that it is not an easy choice for the singer to make, but they cannot deny the pull of their wanderlust. The repetition of "it's in my blood and it's in my bones" emphasizes the idea of an irresistible urge that the singer cannot ignore. This could be a reference to the genetic aspect of the singer's restlessness, implying that it is beyond their control.
The line, "move along so far from home" suggests that the singer is currently on the move or traveling. The opening line, "right here right now, we're falling apart," could refer to a specific situation such as a breakup or an argument that has caused tension between the singer and their loved ones. The singer's apologies and promises to make amends demonstrate their desire and willingness to repair the damage caused.

BPSN been around since the late 50s, late '58 to be exact from the Mecca, Woodlawn, Southside Chicago. They may fall under the Blood umbrella in L.A. but these brothers still identify w/the laws, morals & draw off the same demo/principles as their brethren in the Mecca (Chicago). Much love to the Stones

In LA they don’t fallow any Chicago laws. They fallow the blood card law.
Frank Finesse
@_Cali187x_ If that's so, why do they run w/5X's? Why do they honor the 5? That's Chicago laws & politics & they identify w/the demo

@Neek Holiday I mean didn’t t rodgers bring that blood shit there?! There wasn’t any bloods until AFTER they started that. Any bloods or people that rocked red wasn’t blood… they were swans, bishops or pirus. Yeah they was rocking the red before the term blood but after t rodgers came back from the chi n stamped it ppl started calling themselves bloods. Besides the few I named correct?
