Bleed

You used to love somebody
But they left you down and out
And your heart was badly broken
Destroyed and filled with doubt
Now you wanna try to love again
But you're too scared to proceed
You know to be prepared for love
You must be prepared to bleed
oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
You must be prepared to bleed

Your heart is filled with fear
In love you might get burned
You think it's easy to be lonely
No deposit – no return
But life is just a gamble
There ain't nothin' guaranteed
And to be prepared for love
You must be prepared to bleed

So if you want to love again
You're gonna have to choose
So many have been wounded
And you either win or lose
If you wanna take your chances
And reach out for what you need
But to be prepared to love again
You must be prepared to bleed
