"BLOOD ESCAPING MAN"
From the new album "LET IT GO"
performed by State Radio
Closer she smiled telling me not to worry
I said I didn't know and I don't now
But I won't let you fall if you come down
Oh she was waiting
On the wine dark sea with skinny lips of salt she said
Better to give to thee
Then to all the senators in the hall
And we oh oh oh for knowing all
That I never knew
Oh oh oh for knowing all
That I never knew
Well the suitors they're complaining it's a bitter taste of man
I seen them eating and drinking and vying for her hand
I seen her walking too up the widows walk
I tell her to keep it on
I tell her don't give up
Cause i swear that he's coming, just wait a little more time
See there's been a dead reckoning with the government
Though they seem to know their plan
They're drawing all their lots to see who's the better man
And then the winner come and grabs her in stride
takes her to bed and makes, makes her their bride
But i reckon he gonna come home and see you making it with his wife
I seen the blood escaping man
But do not overlook him if you can
I seen the blood escaping man
But do not overlook him
In your heart she holds the candle that guides her through the night
She came to me in secret and whispered out first light
I said please mad-ame for all your beauty its not me you want
I saw a bum in town whose body it leaves no blood
today as the suitors come there's a ragged bagger behind
Id love to be your lover but there's a ragged bagger behind
I seen the Blood Escaping Man
But do not overcome him if you can
I seen the Blood Escaping Man
But do not overlook him in your heart you hold the light that leads you underneath the rags he is your man
any corrections to the lyrics? let me know

Yes.. its in the original track but i cut that out.
He's referring to Penelope (wife of Odysseus) who was to be paired with a new husband since hers had not returned. All the suitors (senators) are praying on her to take her hand. She tells her servant (Emaeus) that she would rather be with him than them but he tells her to wait because Odysseus is coming. He then comes as a beggar and she picks him without knowing it is him.
Kind of a loose description. but you can find out more on google.
