Erase, erase, erase your memory if you can

Regret is not a word you ever meant

Repent, repent!

Those who can't stand the heat shouldn't go around starting fires

But when you fail your instinct tells you to try again

And when you pray the saints pretend they're away

Does it hurt? Does it hurt?

When they rub it on your face

Tell me does it hurt the same?

Does it hurt? Does it hurt?

When you can't proclaim your pain

Tell me does it hurt any less?

Where people see roses you see a crown of thorns

We don't need more crosses

Before I opened my heart for you

I should have taken some anaesthesia

It hurts, it hurts whether you mean it or not

It drains, it drains the energy in my core

It burns, it burns

Those who can't stand the heat shouldn't go around starting fires

And when you bite your venom doesn't feel strange in my veins

And when you curse your tongue gives you away

Does it hurt? Does it hurt?

When they rub it on your face

Tell me does it hurt the same?

Does it hurt? Does it hurt?

When you can't proclaim your pain

Tell me does it hurt any less?
