Blood

 Dm                                             Gm
Silence slights spirits of those gone into the night
Bb                A
But what was the cost?
      Dm     Am   G
Do I justify the loss
       Gm         A              Dm         C     Bb
When a loss of control would be digging myself a hole?
Gm              A
It couldn't be worth it

[Chorus]

Dm
I'm a killer
Dm
I'm a killer
Dm
I'm a killer
F                         A        Bb
But I've been killing myself all along
    F          Am        Bb
Had I done my best to protect innocence
       F           C           Dm
Or did I lead the wolf to the fawn?

[Verse 2]

 Dm
Watch your words
               Bb     F       Gm
Keep them from bothering the herd
Bb             A
Provoking the stones
     Dm    C        G
That they all can throw
Bb                A
No, I won't carry on
 Dm          C           Bb
Living this life that I stole
   Gm           A
It just isn't worth it

[Chorus 2]

Dm
I'm a killer
Dm
I'm a killer
Dm
I'm a killer
                F                  Bb
But I've been killing myself all along
  F                          Bb
Divining the right from the wrong
    F                     Bb        Dm
Had I done my best to protect innocence
        Bb                C       F
Or was something more wicked in store?

[Verse 3]

 C         Bb        F          C
Is there villainy inside of me?
    Bb
In search of worth
         C
Have I burned the earth?
           Bb               Dm
There's no passion in being passive
        F
And no inaction could bring an answer
        Bb
So for you, I am a killer
