Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Sometimes love is like a fist fight
Sometimes it's just a brutal serenade
I tried to override its venomous ways
I don't understand it

[Verse 2]
Sometimes it's sliding to a nightmare
Sometimes I wake up on a losing streak
I try to undermine the devil in me
I don't understand it, I don't understand it
I don't understand it

[Chorus 1]
Give me a love that won't go and kill me
Give me a love that just wants to heal me
Show me a life with blood and with beauty
Give me a love, give me a love
Give me a love that won't let me sit down
Give me a love that won't walk out
Show me the one that can't stand to lose me
Give me a love, give me a love

[Verse 3]
Sometimes it gets me in a headlock
Sometimes I let it get the best of me
I try to silence it so why do I scream?
I don't understand it, I don't understand it
I don't understand it

[Chorus]

[Reprise]
Heaven help me to surrender
Show me mercy, please believe me
I will never ask for anything again

[Chorus 2]
Give me a love that won't go and kill me
Give me a love that just wants to heal me
Show me a life with blood and with beauty
Give me a love

[Chorus 1]
