"Arrest Me 'Til It Hurts" lyrics

If I told you that this is a bore
If I asked you to walk out that door
If I told you that life could be more
Would you believe me?

If I loved you much more than I can
If I turned all this pavement to sand
We could rally around and around
Would you surrender?

We won't stay trapped on this dancefloor
Where everyone's just sitting down
I wanna sing hallelujah and wave 'em like I just don't care
Please respect my disrespect
If you give me shit I'll give you shit
I wanna sing hallelujah, arrest me 'til it hurts
So bad...

I'll be your friend if you'll ever get tired
This love is not for sale or for hire
We don't miss what it is we desire
But we need it

Every kiss is a promise to keep
It's not feeling but being alive
If I asked you to walk through the gates
Would you run with me?

We won't stay trapped on this dancefloor
Where everyone's just sitting down
I wanna sing hallelujah and wave them like I just don't care
Please respect my disrespect
But if you give me shit I'll give you shit
I wanna sing hallelujah, arrest me 'til it hurts
So bad

I know you got it in you baby
I'll put the weight upon your shoulder
Don't worry about the would-have-been's
Just focus on the meant-to-be's

We won't stay trapped on this dancefloor
Where everyone's just sitting down
I wanna sing hallelujah and wave them like I just don't care
Please respect my disrespect
But if you give me shit I'll give you shit
I wanna sing hallelujah, arrest me 'til it hurts so bad
