Love Is Pain

You're squeezing my blood muscle too tight, and, babe, if I don't die tonight,

I'll be the strongest girl on earth...

With every little scratch it pales, your love for me beneath my nails,

Until I've scraped it all away,

Don't be afraid of my black ringed eyes,

I'm just in love and love is pain...

There are no lies,

I wish you'd hurt me just to see how it feels,

to be in love when love is pain,

and pain is real.

You've cooked up all this dirty guilt, this tower of betrayal you've built,

But this is nothing to be cleaned,

I swear that I did not betray, so you don't need to make me pay,

And I just wish you'd understand...

Don't be afraid of my black ringed eyes,

I'm just in love and love is pain,

there are no lies,

I wish you'd hurt me just to see how it feels,

to be in love when love is pain,

and pain is real...
