you would jump in front of a moving train for me   you would throw yourself onto the tracks in the culminating scene   and you always say you'd jump in a vat of boiling oil   or coat yourself in anything that would make anybody else recoil   you would jump across me and take a bullet to the heart   but sit right down and listen to me    before any of this jumping starts      I don't wanna be loved like that      if I ever needed you you'd come as fast as you could   through the dark and through the woods in your bright red shiny hood   and the next thing you know I might devour you whole   even though all the signs were there   even though you know anybody could have told you      that I don't wanna be loved like that      I just want you to hold my hand   be patient with me when there are things that I don’t understand   know yourself well enough to believe me when I say   the bravest thing you could do for me is to    get out of harms way      oh      I wouldn't jump in front of a moving train for you   I think that's a stupid and selfish thing to do   just so that everyone can look and say   oh look what she went through   all that would be left of me is something I was trying to prove      I don't wanna be loved like that      I don't wanna be loved like that
