You've got blue blood on your hands
I think it's my own
We can go down to the streets
And follow the shores
Of all the people
We could be two
Then I bite my nails to the quick
Run back home
You've got blue blood on your hands
I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight
To show me my soul
Of all the people
I hoped it'd be you
To come and free me, take me away
To show me my home
Where I was born
Where I belong
'Cause you've got blue blood on your hands
I want you to know
I hoped you'd come and take me away
Back to my home
Of all the people
It had to be you
Then I bite my nails to the quick
Run back home
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home
You've got blue blood on your hands
I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight
To show me my soul
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it (you showed me)
Come with me, accept it, so now you know (where to go, to my home)
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it (to my home, you showed me)
Come with me accept it, so now you know (where to go, to my home)
To my home
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know, that you know
That you know
To my home
So take me through the roads
That you know where you know
You showed me where to go, to my home
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it
Come with me, accept it, so now you know
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it
Come with me, accept it, so now you know
You've got the blood on your hands
I know it's my own
We can go down to the streets
And follow the shores
Of all the people
I hoped it'd be you
You showed me my way back home
To where I was born
Where I belong
Where I belong
I think it's my own
We can go down to the streets
And follow the shores
Of all the people
We could be two
Then I bite my nails to the quick
Run back home
You've got blue blood on your hands
I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight
To show me my soul
Of all the people
I hoped it'd be you
To come and free me, take me away
To show me my home
Where I was born
Where I belong
'Cause you've got blue blood on your hands
I want you to know
I hoped you'd come and take me away
Back to my home
Of all the people
It had to be you
Then I bite my nails to the quick
Run back home
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home
You've got blue blood on your hands
I know it's my own
You came at me in the midnight
To show me my soul
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know to my home
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it (you showed me)
Come with me, accept it, so now you know (where to go, to my home)
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it (to my home, you showed me)
Come with me accept it, so now you know (where to go, to my home)
To my home
You showed me where to go
To my home, to my home
So take me through the roads
That you know, that you know
That you know
To my home
So take me through the roads
That you know where you know
You showed me where to go, to my home
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it
Come with me, accept it, so now you know
Come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it
Come with me, accept it, so now you know
You've got the blood on your hands
I know it's my own
We can go down to the streets
And follow the shores
Of all the people
I hoped it'd be you
You showed me my way back home
To where I was born
Where I belong
Where I belong

To understand this harmonious song, hypothesize that the singer is talking to Jesus. He, as the king of kings, has blue blood. The "come with me, accept it, affect it, protect it, etc" lyric refers to this blood. So the message is that all men are equal and Jesus can show you your path and, finally, save you. Foals are a spiritual band, I believe that even the name comes from the foal that Jesus was riding when he entered Jerusalem and the Israelites welcomed him with palms... Of course if you are not a christian you can replace Jesus with your god or any beloved one!
