I want you to hurt me
But it's all just a shade of the dark
I'm afraid, mourning rain
And the one I left behind
I want you to hurt me
But I don't wanna fall in mirage
Plastered grey, frowning strength
But your faith is what I find

If you teach me to love, if you teach me to breathe
Well, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs
If you teach me to love, I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades

I want you to hurt me
I'm a casualty of your touch
A pierced dove all alone
With your crimson venting slow
I want you to hurt me
'Cause my pain has drifted away
Blinking calm, but I feel
Dust of salt from down below

If you teach me to love, if you teach me to breathe
Well, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs
If you teach me to love, I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades
Yes, I'll burn you with my love that never shades

If you teach me to love, if you teach me to breathe
Well, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs
If you teach me to love, I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades
Yes, I'll burn you with my love that never shades
