Hurt Me Now

In a burning building

I was bowling over

With a head of ashes

On a bed of stone

Oh, can you hear me now?

Oh, don't hurt me now

In the velvet calm

Willing, undone

I placed my heart on the table

When the fire comes

Oh, don't hurt me now

Oh, don't hurt me now

Have i become

Willing, undone?

You put the temple

Into the ground

Oh, don't hurt me now

Oh, don't hurt me now

In the velvet calm,

Had I known the hour

What I would have done their bidding

What would I have done?

Had I had a hundred fathers

Had I been a king

How I would have gone
