Love me to death cause I need the sleep
I've been wide awake
She hit me with a hand of broken nails
It hurts to give
When my heart has had too much to take
Another blow
Another broken spell
And it hits so hard
Heart fist
Love me to the head and hurts too bad
You're going all around
(I don't know why you can be so cold)
Oh yeah
It beats so hard into my chest
I prop my feet against the ground
(You've got to bite the hand that feeds you)
All right
I'm going down so why put up a fight
It's gonna hit me
It's gonna hit me
Heart fist
Don't leave another bomb to blow my head
It's gonna hit me
It's gonna hit me
[Chorus]
Love me to death cause I need the sleep
I've been wide awake
She hit me with a hand of broken nails
It hurts to give
When my heart has had too much to take
And you know how to hit it
Heart fist
Heart fist
Heart
Heart fist
Into the way of pumping blood from me
Alive before I drown
(I don't know, how do you think so cold)
All right
You lure me to your bed of nails
And then hit me when I'm down
(You gotta bite the hand that feeds you)
All right
I'm going down so why put up a fight
It's gonna hit me
It's gonna hit me
Heart fist
Don't leave another bomb to blow my head
It's gonna hit me
Yeah, it's gonna hit me
Heart fist
You love to hit me when I'm down
And set me up again
(It's like never getting up from a bad dream)
(Chorus)
I feel the pain that brings me to the ground
I feel another fist begin to pound
Bleed everything and love into submission
Cause I will hit you like a heart condition
(Chorus)
When it all adds up
You don't mean that much to me
Just another kiss to leave me when I'm down
And it hits so hard
Yeah it hits so hard
