If you're looking for love, get a heart made a steel
'Cause you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love, it'll hurt you for real
Don't you know that love kills?

If you're looking for love, get a heart made of steel
'Cause you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love, it'll hurt you for real
Don't you know that love kills?

Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself
In this cold hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself
In this cold hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

If you're looking for love, get a heart made of steel
'Cause you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love, it'll hurt you for real
Don't you know that love kills

If you're looking for love, get a heart made of steel
'Cause you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love, it'll hurt you for real
Don't you know that love kills

And I know when you're in too deep
Used to think of me sometimes
Stockholm syndrome in misery
There's a penalty for love crimes, oh yeah

Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself
In this cold hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself
In this cold hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Protect yourself, (protect yourself, protect yourself)
So check yourself, (check yourself, check yourself, check yourself, check yourself)

Hmm and I know when you're in too deep
Used to think of me sometimes
Stockholm syndrome in misery
There's a penalty for love crimes
Oh yeah

Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself (if you're looking for love)
In this cold hard world, 'cause you know that love kills
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself (don't go messing with love)
In this cold hard world, don't you know that love kills?
Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself (if you're looking for love)
In this cold hard world, cause you know that love kills
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself (don't go messing with love)
In this cold hard world, don't you know that love kills?
Protect yourself 'cause you'll wrack yourself (if you're looking for love)
In this cold hard world, cause you know that love kills
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself (don't go messing with love)
In this cold hard world, don't you know that love kills?
(Love kills, love kills, love kills, love kills)
