I see the radiance of your atom heart
I wash my dirty hands in your liquid fire
I know it's dangerous but I do it anyway
I need the purity even if it hurts
I feel the naked truth in your quiet voice
I see my secret thoughts in your metal eyes
I think it's beautiful the way you say goodbye
I need the purity even if it hurts
I feel the rage inside but you play your part
I watch your shaking fists and I feed the fire
I know it's hurting you but I do it anyway
I need the fury too even if it hurts
I want the naked truth in your tired voice
I tell my deepest truth I am mesmerized
I think it's beautiful the way we say goodnight
We need the fury too even when it hurts
Even when it hurts
Even when it hurts
Even when it hurts
