Bloc Party The Blood Moon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
At first I don't see it, I only hear it
Like the beating of our heart
Under the floorboards, torn apart
I run but it's faster, it's toying with me
Walked in this cursed city
Lead to the same place, it seems

[Verse 2]
Fate
It's a dangerous game on a dangerous land
Fate
A lane you can't escape
The fear in me rises, rises through my skin
And it can feel which way I'm headed
It can sense what I'm thinking

[Chorus]
Everything I've known, everything I've worked for
Is slipping through my reach
Feelings that I've had, feelings that I've nevеr had
I can't control it
Everything I've evеr known
Been taken by the moon, taken by the blood moon
Everything I've ever known
Been taken by the moon, taken by the blood moon

[Verse 3]
It has me in its grip, I am intoxicated
Rising through the night
And it has taken me under wing I cannot resist this, the battle in me gone
I give myself over
Let the victor claim the spoils

[Pre-Chorus]
The blood moon and its stars disappear behind his eyes
And I cannot fathom why this moment feels like [?]

[Chorus]
Everything I've known, everything I've worked for
Is slipping through my reach
Feelings that I've had, feelings that I've never had
I can't control it
Everything I've ever known
Been taken by the moon, taken by the blood moon
Everything I've ever known

[Outtro]
Everything I've known, everything I've worked for
Is slipping through my reach
Feelings that I've had, feelings that I've never had
I can't control it
Everything I've ever known
Been taken by the moon, taken by the blood moon
Everything I've ever known
Been taken by the moon, taken by the blood moon
