BEAR HUG

When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?

I say what will hurt you
I say what’ll cause you harm
We know the buttons
Oh, we know the buttons
And we keep hitting the mark
Who knew it’d be easy?
Who knew it’d be so easy?
Still I can’t understand why we’re doing it to ourselves

When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?

We’re down in the gutter
Looking for dirt, looking for skeletons
We know the secrets
Oh, we know the secrets
And we know how to use ‘em
But what’s making us do it?
What the hell’s making us do it?
‘Cause I can’t understand how I’m gonna get by when you’re gone

When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?

So come on and hold me tight so I can hardly breathe
Go on and squeeze the life right out of me
Oh, and I’ll hold you back until you just suffocate
Is this love we feel? Is this love we feel?
Oh, this is love we feel!
