Bad Blood Lyrics

Bright Eyes

No news, that's good news that someone's gonna break. See, things change. Yeah, I've been changing every day. It's peaceful, the pitch black when the last light on goes out. I'm stranded in my bed, so I think about the bad luck, the bad blood that may have come between two good souls. That's one hell of an offering. So take these gifts that have been given, yes, and ended up with an alphabet but some words are too wrong to define. Now the whole world is waking up, a ribbon cut for the opening. Yeah, we all do that day we've arrived.
Up all night, all upset. Outside's growing light. No breakfast, just not much of an appetite. So be cool and believe in the things you haven't learned. 'Cause you lost and it's gone but it will return. Now it's all laid out in front of you and that's half murdered the mystery. Are you still too shy to describe? Now the whole world is waking up, a ribbon cut for the opening. Yes, finally the day has arrived. So seek and rejoice. Fill your hands with something tangible and fly your love like a flag. And it's joy, the desire for that which is impossible. And accept what you get with a smile.
