Hurt me baby

I flinch so when you

do. Your kisses scourge me.

Hyssop in your per-

You look like me.

And I look like no one

else. We need no other.

As long as we

have ourselves.

All ugly thoughts are

gone. I'm sure we'll all be

friends. I'll try to break your

back. You'll try to make a-

mends. Curse softly to me

baby and smother me in your

love. Temptation comes

not from Hell, but from above. And there's

blood on my teeth when I

bite my tongue to speak. Zip me

down, kiss me there, I can

smile now, you won't

find out ever!

Hurt me baby

I flinch so when you

do. Your kisses scourge

me. Hyssop in your per-

fume. Oh, I do not fear you.

And slave I only

use as a word to describe the

way I feel when I'm with you.

 

 

if I have to lie about it

every time I came undressed
