Lyrics:

In a burning building
I was boiling over
With a head of ashes
On a bed of stone

Oh, can you hear me now?
Oh, don't hurt me now

In the velvet calm
Willing, undone
Placed my heart on the table
And the fire comes

Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

Have I become
Willing, undone?
You put the temple
Into the ground

Oh, please don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

In the velvet calm
Had I known the help
What I would have done their building
What I would have done
Had I had a hundred fathers
Don't hurt me now
Had I been a king
How I would have gone
Don't hurt me now

Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now

Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now
