Lyrics: Ben Harper. Please Bleed.

Make me feel like a beggar
Make me feel like a thief
Make me feel like a battle
That cannot end in peace
Make me feel like running
As if I've lost my nerve
Make me feel like crying
Tears I don't deserve
Please bleed
So I know that you are real
So I know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Whooo, Who have I become?
To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb

Is this really living
Sometimes it's hard to tell
Or is it just a kind of gentler hell
Turn out the lights
And let me stare into your soul
I was born and bled for you to hold

Please bleed
So I know that you are real
So I know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Whooo, Who have I become?
To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb

Never said thank you
Never said please
Never gave reason to believe
So as it stands
I remain on my knees
Good lovers make great enemies

Please bleed
So I know that you are real
So I know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Whooo, Who have I become
To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb

Please bleed
So I know that you are real
So I know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Whooo, Who have I become
To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb
