This is the story, the story of blood
It starts in the heart
It moves all around, wakes you in the morning
And brings you down
You see it coming, the thickness and the colour
Sliding across the floor
It moves all around, wakes you in the morning
And brings you down
And brings you down
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Light
Into the light
It's the color of midnight where we lie
Sinking in the sand
Watching the rain come pouring down
On the other side of life
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
Swing your soul (Swing your soul)
It moves all around
It moves all around, brings you down
It moves all around, wakes you in the morning
This is the story, the story of blood
I'm standing here waiting, waiting in the morning
Sleepy and hoping for the tide to turn
Sleepy and hoping for the tide to turn
I'm going back to get thеm, my friends in the morning
Bring them with mе into the light (Into the light) …
Swing your soul, swing your soul
Swing your soul, swing your soul
Swing your soul, swing your soul
Watching the rain come pouring down
Swing your soul
The thickness and the color
Sliding across the floor
Swing your soul
