Bleeding Lyrics

You cannot hide
From me
I will be there
You say that we’re nothing
I say you’re scared

Do you know what I know?
Do you even care?
Can you see what’s coming, baby
It’s so crystal clear

Don’t you know
This has me more than bleeding
Don’t you know
I cannot fight this feeling
Don’t you go
Can you not hear me screaming no, no

You say that you fear me
Why do you lie? (Why do you lie, lie, lie)
I say that you love me
Must you deny (deny, deny, deny)

Do you know what I know (why do you)
Do you even care? (you don’t care)
Can you see me coming, baby
It’s so crystal clear

And don’t you know
This has me more than bleeding
Don’t you know
I cannot fight this feeling
Don’t you go
Can you not hear me screaming no, no

And I want you with me right now (right now, right now)
And I want you to feel me somehow (somehow, somehow)
And I want to taste what you don’t (you don’t, you don’t)
And I want you to want me too
And I want you to want me

And don’t you know
This has me more than bleeding
Don’t you know
I cannot fight this feeling
Don’t you go
Can you not hear me screaming no, no

Shut up, you wanted me
Shut up, you needed me
Shut up, you wanted me
Shut up, you do

This song means so much to me right now. Me and my friend have bene really into eachother but neither of us would admit it, finally we did, we went out for a week, then he told me he never saw me as more than a friend, and now that I have to tell everyone we broke up because of that, they keep telling me what bullshit that was because he would never stop talkin about how much he wanted me. So now I just wanna scream this song at him.

The main part I forgot! lol....This song seems to just be about someone denying how they feel for someone when its only obvious that they care.

why don't you sing this song for him?

Oh and I agree. Saw this on twentyfour seven and I must admit this is one hell of a good band. A lil whiny sometimes but they make up for it.

I love this song but everywhere I look for the lyrics they always say "Don’t you know This HAS me more than bleeding" and I swear I thoug they said "Don’t you know This HURTS me more than bleeding". Am I incorrect

I believe that it is "Hurts" as well. At least thats what i hear when i listen to the song.

yeah it is "Hurt" if you have the CD and read the lyrics in the cd cover it does say "Hurt"

This is a stalker song, similar to "Every Breath You Take" by the Police, and "Two Steps Behind" by Def Leppard, but scarier than either. At best, it is about a guy who cannot let go of someone after being rejected. At worst, it is about rape or murder.

You cannot hide From me I will be there You say that we’re nothing I say you’re scared

Initial establishment of the stalker theme. The victim has denied interest ("You say that we're nothing"), but the stalker has rationalized an alternative explanation ("you're scared") and is committed to keeping tabs on the victim ("You cannot hide from me; I will be there").

Do you know what I know? Do you even care? Can you see what’s coming, baby It’s so crystal clear

The stalker is not 100% confident in his rationalization ("Do you even care?") but has a clear vision of the future ("Can you see what's coming, baby; it's so crystal clear"). Whether this vision is of a specific event is less clear, but I postulate that the stalker is planning a crime (see below).

Don’t you know This has me more than bleeding Don’t you know I cannot fight this feeling Don’t you go Can you not hear me screaming no, no

The stalker expresses frustration that the victim does not return his interest.

You say that you fear me Why do you lie? (Why do you lie, lie, lie) I say that you love me Must you deny (deny, deny, deny)

More rationalization and denials from the stalker.

Do you know what I know (why do you) Do you even care? (you don’t care) Can you see me coming, baby It’s so crystal clear

The line "Can you see what's coming" is changed to the more forceful "Can you see me coming," foreshadowing the stalker's future physical assault.

And I want you with me right now (right now, right now) And I want you to feel me somehow (somehow, somehow) And I want to taste what you don’t (you don’t, you don’t) And I want you to want me too And I want you to want me

The stalker's frustration boils over and he confronts the victim, confused but likely intending to force the victim to reciprocate one way or another.

And don’t you know This has me more than bleeding Don’t you know I cannot fight this feeling Don’t you go Can you not hear me screaming no, no

The chorus becomes even more sinister here, as the stalker's emotional screaming "no, no" could at some level be an emotional response to his own horrific actions.

Shut up, you wanted me Shut up, you needed me Shut up, you wanted me Shut up, you do

At the end, anger and denial take over again, either during or shortly after the assault. The stalker needs to quell his intense guilt by asserting that "you wanted me."

So think twice before you pick this one as "our song," lovers. ;-)

My Interpretation
Cover art for Bleeding lyrics by Prom Kings, The

This song is kinda amazing. although, no one really commented yet.. ha. it pretty much says it all.

You cannot hide From me I will be there You say that we’re nothing I say you’re scared

-he is basically saying that he knows she wants to be with him, but shes just scared so she wont admit to it.

Do you know what I know? Do you even care? Can you see what’s coming, baby It’s so crystal clear

-now he is starting to wonder if she really cares.. but says it's "crystal clear" or in other words, obvious, how they feel about each other.

Don’t you know This has me more than bleeding Don’t you know I cannot fight this feeling Don’t you go Can you not hear me screaming no, no

-he cant fight his love for her, and doesnt want her to leave him. he is afraid that her being scared is going to ruin everything.

You say that you fear me Why do you lie? (Why do you lie, lie, lie) I say that you love me Must you deny (deny, deny, deny)

-she always says shes scared, and denies any feelings towards him, he knows that he loves her, and wants her to admit it.

And I want you with me right now (right now, right now) And I want you to feel me somehow (somehow, somehow) And I want to taste what you don’t (you don’t, you don’t) And I want you to want me too And I want you to want me

-he is basically telling her that he wants her to come out, n say he she rly feels. he wants her wiht him n to want him too. "i want to taste what you dont," he wants them to be together n she doenst because shes scared.

Shut up, you wanted me Shut up, you needed me Shut up, you wanted me Shut up, you do

-hes saying to just be quiet n stop denying everything, bc he knows how she feels about him.

this song is basically about this guy, knowing this girl and him are supposed to be togehter, and love each other, but the girl is just scared.
