Completely untouchable, I knew no surprises
Wrapped in a cold world of my own devices
But I heard you smashing and swinging hard outside
Saw your sweet face and I nearly died, I nearly died
Violently, you came to me
Said I could be a different man, a different man
Violently, your words hit me
And I broke gently into your hands
Violently, you came to me

A frozen survivor
All brittle and hateful
I'm uncomprehending
Who would want this fool?
But you chipped away until some poor soul appeared
Shivering, trembling, stumbling around
Then you brought me near
Violently, you came to me
You came to me
Said I could be a different man, a different man
Violently, your words hit me
And I broke gently into your hands
Into your hands
Violently, I knew no surprises
I knew no surprises
Violently, violently
Wrapped in a cold world of my own devices
Violently, violently
Then you came to me, then you came to me
Violently, violently
Do-do-do, do-do-do
Violently, you came to me
You came to me
Said I could be a different man, a different man
Violently, your words hit me
And I broke gently into your hands
Into your hands
Into your hands
Oh, violently, violently
And now I broke into your hands
Into your hands
Give me your hands
Give me your fingers over my shoulders
And I broke gently into your hands




you
