2019 Off-Broadway Broadway Bounty Hunter the Musical - Veins Lyrics
Performed by: Annie Golden, Ensemble
ANNIE: When people used to ask me who I was I used to say, I’m just an actress Cuz that was what I did So that’s who I thought i really was
Just a kitten in a cage Puppet on a stage Getting my strings pulled from above
They held me up And I confused that for love
But now my eyes are wide, I can hear a sound It’s my heart re-starting, I feel the pound Oh oh, I feel it pulse in my veins You cut me down and you broke my back You spilled my blood, now I want it back Oh oh, I want it back in my veins
From the very start I always played the part I was expected to inhabit I’d take a hit long as it fit Into the role
Now I don’t wanna be defined By what’s in the mind Of some man behind the curtain So I am breaking character And taking total control Of body and soul
I’ve fixed each rip and repaired each tear Now my vessel’s ready to take me there Oh oh, the blood is back in my veins
ENSEMBLE: The blood is back, blood is back in her veins
ANNIE: My pulse is rising, my sight’s are set And I’m moving fast but I’m not there yet Oh oh, the blood is back in my veins
I am not a superhero A mother, nor a blushing flower
ENSEMBLE: Annie golden’s not a blushing flower
ANNIE & ENSEMBLE: Don’t have to be a superhero
ANNIE: To have power
ANNIE & ENSEMBLE: Power, power
ANNIE: I’m not gonna run, I’m not gonna hide If I need an answer I look inside Oh oh, because I’m holding the reins
I am tnt, I’m a poison dart And my bulls-eye, baby, is your dirty heart Oh oh, I’m gonna show you my veins, my veins, my veins
ANNIE, ENSEMBLE: And my back is mended, my heart is full And the puppet strings that you used to pull Are lying on the ground A broken pile of chains
ENSEMBLE: A broken pile, just a pile of chains
ANNIE: Full steam ahead, I won’t be subdued Cuz the blood I shed, it has been renewed Oh oh, after many great pains The blood is back in my veins
ANNIE & ENSEMBLE: Yo! Annie, Annie Moving on up Go Annie, Annie Moving on up She’s got the blood in her veins Yo! Annie, Annie Moving on up Go Annie, Annie Moving on up She’s got the blood in her veins Yo! Annie, Annie Moving on up Go Annie, Annie Moving on up She’s got the blood in her veins
ANNIE: I’ve always had the blood in my veins
