Chorus (strummed):
C      Em
Please bleed
C                         Em
So I'll know that you are real
C                         Em
So I'll know that you can feel
C                      D     D4 D
The damage that you've done
C                Em
Oh, who have I become?
Am             C     Am   C
To myself I am numb, I am numb
Am   C
I am numb

Is this really livin'?
Sometimes it's hard to tell
Or is this kind of a 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'll know that you are real
So I'll know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Oh, 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'll know that you are real
So I'll know that you can feel
The damage that you've done
Oh what have I become?
To myself I am numb, I am numb
I am numb

repeat chorus 3 times and then it's over
this time the lyrics are perfect!
