Lyrics of Tainted Blood by Blue Öyster Cult
verse
We danced among the mortals
Blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty
Fills the midnight air
verse
I offer first taste
To my love as is always
Tainted blood, she cries and dies
My whole world fades away
pre-chorus
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
chorus
(Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light)
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap mе into the chains)
Do whatever it takеs to end my pain
Without her, eternity is misery
verse
Throughout the many years
Our lives were oh-so-sweet
But this tainted blood has taken
Everything from me
verse
No place for me within this world
The dance is done
No reason to remain
You were the only one
pre-chorus
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
chorus
(Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light)
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
pre-chorus
No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for two hundred years
chorus
(Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light)
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery
chorus
(Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light)
There's nothing, nothing for me
(Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains)
outro
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
outro
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains
outro
Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Writer(s): Eric Bloom, Richard Paul Castellano
