[Verse 1] Bit my tongue again Copper on my teeth Swallow every word Just to keep the peace Cracks in the coffee cup Shakes in my sleeve Smile like nothing’s wrong Lie till I believe [Chorus] If it’s gonna hurt Then let it hurt Let it tear right through me I don’t wanna numb this dirt I wanna bleed Bleed it clean If it’s gonna burn Then let it burn Take the stain right out of me I don’t wanna drown this word I wanna bleed Bleed it clean [Verse 2] You said “you’re over it” Your eyes said “not a chance” We keep the storm indoors Call it circumstance Ash on the windowsill Names we never speak I’d rather break this glass Than die by every leak [Chorus] If it’s gonna hurt Then let it hurt Let it tear right through me I don’t wanna numb this dirt I wanna bleed Bleed it clean If it’s gonna burn Then let it burn Take the stain right out of me I don’t wanna drown this word I wanna bleed Bleed it clean (bleed it clean) [Bridge] Rip the bandage Leave the scar Say the thing We’ve dragged too far If this is over Make it sharp One last cut Right through the heart (yeah) [Chorus] If it’s gonna hurt Then let it hurt Let it tear right through me I don’t wanna numb this dirt I wanna bleed Bleed it clean If it’s gonna burn Then let it burn Take the stain right out of me I don’t wanna drown this word I wanna bleed Bleed it clean (bleed it clean, bleed it clean)
