In a burning building
I was boiling over
With a head of ashes
On a bed of stone
Oh, can you hear me now?
Oh, don't hurt me now
In the velvet calm
Willling undone
I placed my heart on the table
When the fire comes
Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt me now
Have I become
Willing undone?
You put the temple
Into the ground
Oh, don't hurt me now
Oh, don't hurt, me, now
In the velvet calm
Had I known the hour
What I would have done their bidding
What would I have done?
Had I had a hundred fathers
Had I been a king
How would I have gone
