You were raised in moonlight While I chase tigers through the tall grass And if my paper hands did catch one Black stripes turn to ash So I don't dance with reason To the beat of circumstance And these city streets are lined with needles For a mercury transfusion And they call me Mr. Silverblood Yeah, they call me Mr. Silverblood They walk to the end of time To try and find some meaning in this life and they walk through golden fields, with my With my tiger close behind So don't you try to save them Those shadows lined behind me They'll swim in circles if you say you love them And sharks can smell the mercury And they call me Mr. Silverblood Yeah, they call me Mr. Silverblood And I've followed you here, to this hourglass beach, But while you walked on the water I was swept up by the tide And now I'm lost in some dark wake I can see lights from boats at the end of shore And I've waited for someone to sail to me, but I'm still waiting now And no-one ever taught me to swim, and I'm drowning But it's no use, every eye that lands on me moves away so quickly And every time I think someone is speaking to me They start when they hear my voice echo back I'm still just your shadow, cast back and silent And empty, and full of the notes I could never bring myself to sing I'm still just your shadow. So they call me Mr. Silverblood Yeah, they call me Mr. Silverblood They call me, they call me Mr. Silverblood They call me, they call me Mr. Silverblood Yeah, they call me Mr. Silverblood
