This is the fourth track on The Bravery’s third album “Stir The Blood”.
This entire song is about a BDSM themed fantasy the singer (or his ‘character’ for the song) has about someone with whom he has mutual hatred.
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
I can keep secrets that I know how you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't stop me
You could twist and scream into the air but no one can hear you here
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you
You had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
While your shouting friends that despise you to your face
What would they say now if they saw you in this place?
Naked and breathless, could you live with this disgrace?
Could you live? Could you live? Could you live with this?
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you
You had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you
You had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
Love me mercilessly
