Your search for new prey
I watch you as you search for New Blood
While every second drips Old Blood away
I see you reaching out for new life
While every drip makes tomorrow today

If yesterday died when today came to place
Today is creation pushed into tomorrow
If tomorrow’s a time when today used to breathe
The death of today is yesterday’s sorrow

Yesterday’s Old Blood dies with each drip
The switch in today was the Old to the New
Today’s life is gone and the switch dies as well
Old Blood now lies where the New Blood is true

With every beat the heart pumps New Blood
Healing the wounds, removing the stains
Old Blood crumbles, the scabs turn to dust
Now it’s New Blood, the new life in your veins
