Catherine Corelli - Tunnels (Bleeding Life) Lyrics

(Play)
(Right now)

Cold and silence naked stones
Dripping water lonely echoes
A maze of sewers caves and catacombs
With no way back from the get-go

Claustrophobically anxious
I'm left in the dark alone

Dirty water naked feet
Slipping crawling falling under
Terrified I hope I wouldn't bleed
Am I just getting number?

The dark water gets deeper as the walls cave in
And all of a sudden I'm impaled and it's under my skin
The pain! The shock! An iron spike my groin turns red
Gushing blood How am I not dead?

How am I not dead?

Can't recall a single thing
Can't remember how it happened
Suddenly I realize there's
Life inside me quivering
I'll live through this calamity
I must preserve a new beginning
Wounded gravid bleeding through
A new reality

Deeper yet with every step
Jagged stone and bones that splinter
An endless painful stroll into the void
Now it's a dangerous river

Paranoid and drowning
There's no way back 'cause there's no home

Nothing matters anymore
I find my zen in pure survival
I hope to still breathe when I'm washed ashore
But until then in denial

Of the stench of the dirt of how chronically
Under the surface the darkness kept raping me
I'm impregnated and so sick
Amnesiac on the brink
Of going under

Can't recall a single thing
Can't remember how it happened
Suddenly I realize there's
Life inside me quivering
I'll live through this calamity
I must preserve a new beginning
Wounded gravid bleeding through
A new reality

Finally! There's a breach in the wall
Too tight to breathe but enough to crawl

Crawl... I'd rather leave my skin on the rocks than die
Crawl... A little bit of light brings hope to a tired eye
Crawl... God knows what's on the other side of the wall
Crawl... I painfully clawed all the way to the end just to
Faint and drop out and fall

Where am I? What is this? Tall stalls?
Wet antique tiles dim lights stains on a toilet floor?
A girl in a pool of blood by the wall

Who maimed you so? Who scarred your skin?
She's still alive!
Who left you here to bleed out to death alone?
A constant flow an endless scarlet stream
She's still alive!
Who raped you here
So young and pale and cold like a stone?

I know you I've seen your face before
We were one and the same
I thought we won't meet anymore
You fled but now you came

Get up!

Get! Get! Get! G-g-g-get!
Get! Get! Get! G-g-g-get!
Get up!

Don't you f*cking dare to die on me
You're not supposed to rot away in here
It's gonna get much worse ironically
Before we get the f*ck out and walk free

Child you're hurting
Girl you're thirsty
Darkness froze all your time in horror

Open wide your tired eyes
And see the world the way I see it
Let the pain dissolve your fever dream
It's time to leave it's time to rise
And strive towards a new beginning
Out of this calamity
To where we've never been

Crawl! We better push through the rocks than stay and die
Crawl! There will be light again we shall see the deep blue sky
Crawl! Pain is the antidote and anger is the medicine
Crawl! The demons want you to drown so f*ck them all
You gotta learn to swim

Go! There's only one way out but it will set us free
Go! It's none of your fault but it's not your place to be
Go! Use that rage for fuel run on adrenaline
Go! It's not our good night yet but let it burn and burn under the skin

(Right now)

Burn!

I think I start to feel something
It comes and goes it's ever-fleeting
Suddenly I realize there's
Life inside me quivering
I'll live through this calamity
I must preserve a new beginning
Wounded gravid bleeding through
A new reality

It won't be how it used to be
A heartbeat has a brand new meaning
Breathing still against all odds
Alive in this calamity
I love you now and always will
Without a doubt without condition
Bleeding we will make it through
This new reality

I knew you wouldn't leave me behind
I hoped you would not betray me
I'mmured I could have slept till I died
Till I would fade away

I knew you would persist and survive
I hoped you wouldn't flounder
Burn burn and rage against that good night
Not yet! It's not our time

Breathe! There's so much to
There's so much to live
Breathe! There's so much to
There's so much to live
