******************************************************* I've been trying, there's no denying It's sending me out of my mind I've seen reason change to treason It's losing it's sense of all kind How much longer will it take for the world to see We should learn to live and simply let it be Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone In the night time, wake in fright I'm so scared of the game that's being played Start to wonder what's going under And how many deals have been made How much longer will it take for the world to see We should learn to live and simply let it be Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone Bloodstone, I can't take it Bloodstone, You got me living on a Bloodstone, I don't want that that Bloodstone. *******************************************************
