Bloodletting
lyrics and melody by Sean Bailey,
 musical arrangement by RJ Soldani

 The disfigurement, a twisting of fate, choices laid before
But then stricken, away and unaware, the multitude of
five star hotel in Hall in TirolThe effects are flawed, in this precious gem, it is mine the mark
I lay before you , a test to see, where the true heart lies

And failed but would, I have done the same

Condemning the conditioning beyond, beyond.

Your control and regret I fear lurks over

The rise and realization of what could have been

Wandering lost with hindsight as your only guide

But can it still direct you without looking ahead

Darkness looms in the mind, filled with desire

If no means to act on the instinct

The spectacle watched, with a distant glance

Piercing of the heart if you look to far inside

Chorus

I am here, to watch you bleed

Opened yourself up so I could see you seep

Im just observing, not to intervene

Your bloodletting was no direct result of me

Relentless is time, with the correction of a day

Poland HotelsBut never given the chance, never a chance to set it straight

Too much importance, falls on the moment

The hesitation or reaction to soon, or is it to late

Divided forever, now and tomorrow, well never get it back again

Chorus

And never the same, pieces laid out

Before the hand and placed in the wrong order, causing the picture

To crumble away, mostly to close to see the image

For what it truly is, lifes a warshak, of your destination

Only seeing it for what, you want it to be

Not seeing it for what it truly lacks

Creating the objects of our own destruction

Evolving to the point where we will erase

Any evidence of our own existence

Leaving nothing here, leaving not a single trace

Chorus
