[Verse 1: Black Francis & Kim Deal]
As loud as hell, a ringin' bell
Behind my smile, it shakes my teeth
And all the while, as vampires feed

[Chorus: Black Francis & Kim Deal]
I bleed
I bleed
I bleed

[Verse 2: Black Francis & Kim Deal]
Prithee, my dear, why are we here?
Nobody knows, we go to sleep
As breathin' flows, my mind secedes

[Chorus: Black Francis & Kim Deal]
I bleed
I bleed
I bleed
I bleed
I bleed
I bleed!

[Interlude: Kim Deal]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Bridge: Black Francis & Kim Deal]
There's a place in the buried west
In a cave with a house in it
In the clay, the holes of hands
You can place a hand in hand

[Chorus: Black Francis, Kim Deal]
I bleed (I bleed)
I bleed (I bleed)
I bleed (I bleed)
