Twisted sense of irony
In a way a ghost of lack of sympathy
has turned me so hopeless, so heartless
Since heaven ain't open for me tonight
I'll pray for the last time
For you and for me and our ordinary lives, ordinary lives
My pain redefined like an unwelcome guest arrives
Just to remind me

I'm there for you,
If you still want me, to fall afterall.
I'm yours to keep, just come to me,
I'm waiting with my wounds wide open.

[Chorus:]
Pour your salt, into these wounds,
And watch me crawl.
Tell me to take it like a man.
Show me my place, hurt me just because you can.

Though now it hurts like hell
It is better to see that something else
Than leave me unanswered and teased
So tell me now, how was he?
And tell me, was he worth it?
And now it's peace is all i want
It's all in payment for this old and tired one
Downcast wayward son

Can't go out of my home
So i'll make it my own
While rising up to feel no more

Trying to wash off the pain stain
Don't feel my heart with your disdain
Why can't you see, i live with, I face, what you ask of me?

[Chorus]

Take me in
And tell me you hate me
Dream with me
Make love to me until i bleed
How does it feel to know
That you can't break me

[Solo]

And i guess I'd forgive
If would not look weak
And i knew that you'd give yourself to me
Though the wound is too deep
I would give everything
If I could just be the object of your desire

Silently, you stood there before me.
Violently, unveiling your sin and your deceit.
You said to me:
"Love is only beautiful when it bleeds."
