Buckle Up Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got blood
Blood on my hands
The stain of
Of a human
I finally awoke
To my mother's wrath
Call lights
Bed sores and sponge baths

[Pre-Chorus]
Firstly do no harm
Then put your seatbelt on

[Chorus]
Buckle up
Buckle up

[Verse 2]
The drapes pull back
Reveal her wound
Her boy on her lap
A murderer groomed

[Verse 3]
Antiquities lost
Lost to the Nile
A sudden slip
A fall on the tile
[Pre-Chorus]
Firstly do no harm
Then put your seatbelt on

[Chorus]
Buckle up
Buckle up
Buckle up
Buckle up

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
