  • So, scream I heard about your message
    And how it reeks of your indifference
    Simply tied horizontal straight from your wrists
    (So scream louder now)
    I'm bound to come around about
    (Bound to come around)
    But can't you, can't you feel it rolling off your lips
    Tensing up your shoulders
    C'mon say it...

    Well, it's love (It's love)
    Make it hurt (I deserve it)
    Well, it's love (It's love)
    Make it hurt (I deserve it)
    Well, it's love, it's love, it's love...
    Make it hurt.

    I said I use the inconsistencies
    That undress the machine
    You're the poster boy, their selling point, the focus for their new campaign
    (Something has to be done)
    Bound to come around about
    (Bound to come around)
    Oh, but can't you, can't you feel it rolling off your lips
    Tensing up your shoulders, c'mon...

    Well, it's love (It's love)
    Make it hurt (I deserve it)
    Well, it's love (It's love)
    Make it hurt (I deserve it)
    Well, it's love, it's love, it's love...
    Make it hurt.

    The keys to the castle
    Are right where I left them
    The princess walked in just to take more attention
    Cause after all, well isn't that all that I've been after
    And after all, well isn't that all that I'm after
    You're so...

    (No way out) I give up in you, well, I give up in you
    (No way out) I give up in you
    (No way out) Well, I give up in you, I give up in you
    (No way out) Well, I give up in you

    I wanted you for nothing more
    Than hating you for what you were
    If that's what you wanted to hear
    (Well, if that's what you wanted to hear)
    I wanted you for nothing more
    Than hating you for what you were
    (So leave, leave) If that's what you wanted to hear
    (If that's what you wanted to hear)
    I wanted you for nothing more
    Than hating you for what you were
    (So leave, leave) If that's what you wanted to hear
    (If that's what you wanted to hear)
    (It's love, it's love) I wanted you for nothing more
    (Make it hurt, I deserve it) Than hating you for what you were
    (If that's what you wanted to hear)
    That's what you wanted to hear
    (To hear) If that's what you wanted to hear
    (If that is how you'll let it burn) Writer/s: ADAM BURBANK LAZZARA, EDWARD REYES, FREDERICK PAUL MASCHERINO, MARK O'CONNELL, MATTHEW A. RUBANO

  • Meg from Belmar, NjThe song title comes from a comment one of Adam's old roommates made when Adam first played the song for him. His roommate said it has a nice bonus mosh part towards the end.
  • Kiran from Ft. Lauderdale, FlI think its so original and so funny that bonus mosh part 1 is just totally nonexistent.
  • Jess from Glasgow, United Kingdom"and how it reeked of your indifference, it bleeds horizontal straight from your wrists"
    yeah I think it's definately about cutting your wrists but I think it's how it's such a typical way of attempting suicide for attention. You know you get these people that cut themselves for attention and stuff. I think it's definately a reference to that.
  • Anna from New York, Ny"it's love make it hurt" is one of the best set of lyrics ive ever heard.
    great song.
  • Dani from Chicago, Ilit just saying that with love comes pain...and it's inevitable.
  • Kim from Long Island, NyI absolutely love this song, one of the best on the album in my personal opinion. 'Bonus Mosh Pt.II' was the first song written by TBS after John and Shaun were replaced with Fred and Matt, and was also the first song the new line up played in concert.
  • Captainrobin from Boston, Ma"so scream I heard about your message
    and how it reeked of your indifference
    that bleeds horizontal straight from your wrists"

    i believe these lines are some what about cutting your wrists. prolly to the effect that love sucks and it will drive you to crazy things.
