Bleed
By Minnamari on June 9, 2024 11:21 am
This is a dramatic song I wrote as a kind of "motivational speech" or "pep talk" to myself, for staying/ getting through a turbulent time in a relationship. The words changed overtime, starting out from the determined "to the end I will be a friend who will stay here", to the more unsure (but honest?) "I hope I can be a friend who will stay here"..
I did stay, and that turbulence transformed into something beautiful. But every time I sing this song now, I am transported to how it felt back then, when this song was a kind of life line. Music is interesting that way,io a time machine.
Lyrics:
Torn apart
Melting raw
Blood on the floor
Push me against the door
But I'd never want to leave
Not anymore
I'll take all you've got
Even the things that are not
clean-cut garden roses
Give me crazy in high doses
In the end I hope I can be
A friend that will stay here
A friend that wouldn't leave
No matter how hard I bleed
If I give my all
it all could still
fall apart
There's no saving
anyone else's heart
In the end I hope I can be
Someone to stay here
No matter how hard I bleed
