You thought you left the ache behind
Buried deep inside your mind
Of course, you don't bear any fault
For how your life got misaligned
It's in the blood, it's in the vein
It starts off slow, it turns to pain
And still the blood coagulates
It's in the blood, the clot remains
There are others like you who are hurt
The origins are less overt
The final common pathway comes
Because they spend their lives inert
It's in the blood, it's in the vein
It starts off slow, it turns to pain
And still the blood coagulates
It's in the blood, the clot remains
No matter who we wish that we could be
It's often nothing more then pedigree
We can't control the extent to which we bleed
But there can be solace
In your thrombus
I'm just glad that you're still conscious
It's in the blood, it's in the vein
It starts off slow, it turns to pain
And still the blood coagulates
It's in the blood, the clot remains
It's in the blood, the clot remains
It's in the blood, the clot remains
It's in the blood, the clot remains
