Sleep Token – Blood Sport lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want to roll the numbers
I want to feel my stars align again
Even if the earth breaks like burnt skin
And the heavens just won’t open up for me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Would you invite me in again?
Won’t you pay for your arrogance?
Won’t you show me your weakness?

[Chorus]
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I can’t win

[Post-Chorus]
So let’s play

[Verse 2]
And somewhere
Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing
I’m still your favourite regret
You’re still my weapon of choosing

And out there
Stuck in a quantum pattern
Tangled in what I never said
You say it doesn’t matter

[Verse 3]
I want to be forgiven
I want to choke up chunks of my own sins
Even if the sky cracks in the morning
And the heavens just won’t open up for me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Would you invite me again?
Let me pay for my arrogance?
Won’t you show me your weakness?

[Chorus (x2)]
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I can’t win

[Outro]
And somewhere
Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing
I’m still your favourite regret
You’re still my weapon of choosing

And out there
Stuck in a quantum pattern
Tangled in what I never said
You say it doesn’t matter
