It's Not Love (If It Doesn't Hurt)

Being alone with my thoughts is a dangerous game,
But nightly I play, till I've had all I can take,
Because this bed seems so big, without the touch of someone so easily replaced,
Lie to me and tell me I'm what you've been missing,
'Cause all my hours are spent waging wars in my head,
So let me feel right for one minute,

Chew me up, spit me out,
I don't wanna be alone,
So use me up, throw me out,
'Cause I can't say no,
It's not love if it doesn't hurt,
If I break my teeth then will you see, oh it's not love?
It's not love till you bury me,

Heart versus head, and I don't know who I want to win,
Because my heart always cares too much,
And my head couldn't care less,
I used to sell my love to the first buyer,
But now that I want more the prices got higher,
So if you won't take me,
Then make me yours just for one night and try not to break me,

Chew me up, spit me out,
I don't wanna be alone,
So use me up, throw me out,
'Cause I can't say no,
It's not love if it doesn't hurt,
If I break my teeth then will you see, oh it's not love?
It's not love till you bury me,

If there's a place for lost souls like me, it may not be Hell but I'm scared it might be,
Will you burn with me?
'Cause my wings are too worn to carry me anywhere but down and I'm scared to leave,
Will you fall with me?

Will you be my everything?
My everything?
I'll be your anything if you don't leave,
And let our tortured souls be tortured no more than yours to mine and mine to yours,

Chew me up, spit me out,
I don't wanna be alone,
So use me up, throw me out,
'Cause I can't say no,
It's not love if it doesn't hurt,
If I break my teeth then will you see, it's not love?
It's not love...
