when you cut me, i bleed

 

Keep it in mind

Don't throw your weight around

Everything's so heavy in this God-damn town

They go off the bridge

They laugh in the wind

There's only one hole you could put me in

 

CHORUS:

'Cause when you cut me I bleed

Red river of meat

All over your gold

When you cut me I bleed

And in a frenzy you feed

Until I am yours

 

You push and you pull

And then you confess

You can't really take all this tenderness

If I was a saint

You might understand

How dull it can get just being a man

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

A rose in your teeth

A knife in your purse

You dance for your victim then you play nurse

You keep me in bed

'til everything heals

And you wanna know how a true love feels

 

REPEAT CHORUS
