Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?
Daniela Procopio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Give me time to realize my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart the fire is burning
Choose my color find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step a step too far
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Words are few
I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow, words are token
Come inside and catch my tears
You've been talking but believe me
If it's true you do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything's not what you see it's over again
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry




Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry

The repetition of the question "Do you really want to hurt me?" appears to be the singer's plea for mercy, begging the target of their affections to take pity on them and spare them their suffering.


The line "In my heart the fire is burning / Choose my color find a star" appears to indicate a desire to be true to oneself and to follow one's passions. However, the following line "Precious people always tell me / That's a step a step too far" suggests that there are external pressures or societal norms that may be holding the singer back from fulfilling their dreams. The repetition of the question "Do you really want to hurt me?" throughout the song may also indicate a feeling of vulnerability or insecurity on the part of the singer.
