Hurt Me Now

[Verse 1]
In a burning building
I was boiling over
With a head of ashes
On a bed of stone

[Chorus 1]
Oh, can you hear me now?
Oh, don't hurt me now

[Verse 2]
In the velvet calm
Willing, undone
Placed my heart on the table
And the fire comes

[Chorus 2]
Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

[Verse 3]
Have I become
Willing, undone?
You put the temple
Into the ground

[Chorus 3]
Oh, please don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

[Bridge]
In the velvet calm
Had I known the help
What I would have done their building
What I would have done
Had I had a hundred fathers
Don't hurt me now
Had I been a king
How I would have gone
Don't hurt me now

[Chorus 2]
Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

[Chorus 2]
Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now
