bloodstream Lyrics

Fear lingering
Running through my heart like a wild stream
Just a little kid
Blood flowing into my rosy cheeks

Now a river runs red
From my knuckles into the sink
And there′s a pale girl
Staring through the mirror at me
Maybe it's just a dream
Wish I could go back to sleep

Hydrangeas
Blooming off the branches on park trees
It′s a half-hearted calm
The way I've felt since I was thirteen

'Cause I may not feel it now
Covered up the wounds with my long sleeves
But I know it′s waiting there
Swimming through my bloodstream
And it′s gonna come for me
Yeah, it's gonna come for me

What did you have that I didn′t?
And why am I so blue?

On summer free evenings
Feel it slipping through my fingers
But I can't catch it in my hands
Catch it in my

And I've got my guard up
Trying all the time to stay clean
I don't feel anything
I don′t feel anything

What did you have that I didn′t?
And why am I so fucked?
There's someone talking in my forehead
That says, "I′ll never be enough"
And happiness is like a firefly
On summer evenings
Feel it slipping through my fingers
But I can't catch it in my hands
Catch it in my
