Lyrics

They Only Love You
When You Bleed

c Bill Gaunce

Aw ain't it funny
How nothin' ever turns out
like we planned it
we have all of these dreams
way too big to fit, oh

And now you look out
and you think you've never
seen it rain so hard like this
and you think back on
every sunny day you've missed, oh

What raged inside
Now flickers in the dark
Where there was a fire is
Only now a spark

You just try, you got one more in ya
Don't you cry , no your not made that way
And you just try to give 'em what they need
They only love you when you bleed

You left here with the autumn moon low above Virginia
Determined you would show them What was in ya

And now you look out
Over rows & rows of concrete in this grey town
And with every forward step you make You get knocked down, oh

you leave a lonesome message in your call
The whole world sits and waits
for you to fall

But you just try, you got one more in ya
Don't you cry, no your not made that way
And you just try to give 'em what they need
They only love you when you bleed

They only love ya when ya
They only love ya when ya
They only love ya when ya
They only love ya when ya
Bleed

When you bleed.
