[Intro – mystical] [instrumental riff – heavy, chugging, galloping bass] [Verse 1 – snarling vocals, guitar accents on every line] Steel in my veins, iron in my breath Kissed the reaper, laughed at death Doctor says I’m tapped, nurse says I’m set But I’ve got gallons of glory and blood to let [Chorus – shouted gang vocals, fists in the air] Blood to let! (blood to let!) Pour it out, don’t you ever forget Blood to let! (blood to let!) Turn the valve, make the stage all wet [Verse 2 – half-time stomp, echoing cymbals] Needles can’t hold me, I burst through the skin IV’s dripping rhythm, the madness begins Crimson rivers roaring, the audience screams I’m bleeding out thunder in your darkest dreams [Chorus – louder, doubled guitars] Blood to let! (blood to let!) It’s a crimson debt you’ll never regret Blood to let! (blood to let!) On the stone, on the steel, on the fret [Bridge – whispered growl building to scream] [whispered] Draw it slow… watch it flow… [screamed] Drain the night ‘til the spotlight glows! [Breakdown – bass solo, absurdly long drum fill, guitar feedback] [Final Chorus – triple-tracked vocals, cymbal crashes nonstop] Blood to let! (blood to let!) Bleed the amps, they’re soaking in sweat Blood to let! (blood to let!) One more pint ‘til the grave is set! [Outro – feedback squeal fading into heartbeat thump]
