A recorded reading of “Oath in Blood”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
I didn’t sign— I carved it in, the way you love without the skin. No vow of rose, no spoken rite— just scarred devotion in the night. You’ll leave someday, but not for good— our love was sworn in ancient blood.
Lyrics
Carved your name Into my wrist Not to die But to exist A vow etched deep Beyond the skin Where pain begins But lets you in It wasn’t ink It wasn’t fire It was the cut Of true desire Oath in blood Not made to fade It stains the soul But makes it stay No paper kiss No chapel rose Just bone and flesh And what we chose Oath in blood The final truth Forever bleeds In me and you You sealed the pact With teeth, not tongue A love so raw It left me young Not holy writ But sacred hurt Our sacred text Was in the dirt It wasn’t prayer It wasn’t light It was the dark That felt so right Oath in blood Not made to fade It stains the soul But makes it stay No paper kiss No chapel rose Just bone and flesh And what we chose Oath in blood The final truth Forever bleeds In me and you I bled for love And now it grows It knows no end No death, no close Oath in blood Still burning red Through every word We never said No vow so pure No fire so bright As blood that binds Us in the night
