[start] [Instrumental intro: loud aggressive distorted electric guitar - Intensifying for seven bars.] [Guitar levels off | sustained scream - 4 bars] [Drums kick in] [verse] You dig your heel in, I beg you for more, Then bleed out my pride on the ballroom floor. You smile like a razor, I bow like a fool, And call every cruelty another new rule. [chorus] You pull me in close just to shove me away, I curse you by night and come crawling by day. Your love is a bruise that I polish to shine, You ruin me beautifully, one step at a time. [Lyrical outro] So tighten the hold till I gasp for the beat, Make mercy the one thing we never repeat. If loving you hurts, then darling, don't stop, We'll tango through hell till the last curtain drops. [Instrumental outro. - The intros in reverse] [end]
