Carmody - Blood

This song is about the things we carry in our bloodlines that affect us, even when we have not directly experienced them. I was really inspired by constellation therapy - the idea that we can discover the hidden narratives of the past by putting strangers in a room, who come to represent members of your family. It’s fascinating that our DNA can hold these experiences that get taken from generation to generation and I wanted to explore what I feel I have inherited through my bloodlines. It’s also where the title ‘Imperfect Constellations’ came from.
Lyrics:
I can hear your words on my tongue
blood
I can feel your gestures in mine
blood
My father taught me kindness, my mother taught me strength
and there’s someone in my line who taught me how to find the dark
till there’s no light left
Oh blood, oh blood
a tapestry of years that weaves through all of us
Oh blood
a tapestry that weaves through us
I can see your bitter in my eyes
blood
I have known your sadness with time
blood
Felt the warm ache of laughter, I’ve cried swimming pools in your name
and there’s someone in my line who’ll trespass intertwine wildfires
I cannot contain
Oh blood, oh blood
a tapestry of years that weaves through all of us
Oh blood
a tapestry of years that weave through all of us, through all of us, through all of us
Oh, the weight that lies so heavy in your spine
Oh, imperfect constellations that rewrite your life
Blood, Oh blood
a tapestry of years that weave through all of us
imperfect constellations that rewrite your life, write your life
oh blood, oh blood
oh blood, imperfect constellations that rewrite your life
oh blood, a tapestry of years that weave through all of us
imperfect constellations
