Passion Pit - American Blood Lyrics

Oh, American Blood
In my eyes and on my hands
Such an awful circumstance

Oh, carry your arms
just strike a match and then oppose
but that wound, nobody knows

And you're gonna be alright
And you're gonna keep me safe this time
And you're gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be quite alright

You had me x3

Oh, American blood
How my love always was young
How it always felt so fun

Oh, you went to my head
All my limbs and ...(?)
Upside down, hanging by a thread

You're gonna be alright
You're gonna keep me safe this time
You're gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be quite alright

You had me x3

What's it feel like?
What's it feel like to be alone?
What's it hurt like?
Does it hurt you because you know
that a-ll of your blood
corrupts your tranquil state in one massive wave (?)

It could reach the highest peak and then deepest cave

We're gonna be alright
and you're gonna keep me safe this time
We're gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be quite alright

you had me x4

Every time she checks my blood
I don't stop bleeding words of love
and in that tangled love is you and me (?)
