Lyrics for Please Bleed

Make me feel like a beggar Make me feel like a thief Make me feel like a battle That cannot end in peace Make me feel like running As if I've lost my nerve Make me feel like crying Tears I don't deserve Please bleed So I know that you are real So I know that you can feel The damage that you've done Oh, who have I become To myself I am numb I am numb, I am numb Is this really living? Sometimes it's hard to tell Or is this just a kinder, gentler hell Turn out the lights And let me stare into your soul I was born and bled for you to hold Please bleed So I know that you are real So I know that you can feel The damage that you've done Oh, who have I become To myself I am numb I am numb, I am numb Never said thank you Never said please Never gave reason to believe So as it stands I remain on my knees Good lovers make great enemies Please bleed So I know that you are real So I know that you can feel The damage that you've done Whoa, who have I become To myself I am numb I am numb, I am numb Please bleed So I know that you were real So I know that you could feel The damage that you've done Whoa, who have I become To myself I am numb I am numb, I am numb
