Please Bleed

Written by

Original Artist

Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals

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
Who have I become
To myself 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
Who have I become
To myself I am numb

Never said thank you
Never said please
Never gave a 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
Who have I become
To myself I am numb

Burn To Shine
