[Verse]
Are you hurting the one you love?
You say you've found Heaven, but you can't find God
Are you hurting the one you love?
Bite your tongue until it tastes like blood

Are you hurting the one you love?
So many glasses on the tabletop
Are you hurting the one you love?
You'd like to stay in heaven but the rules are too tough

Tough
It's just too tough
Tough
It's just too tough

Are you hurting the one you love?
When they watched the walls, and the ticking clock
Are you hurting the one you love?
And was it something you could not stop

Could not stop
Stop
Could not stop
Stop
Could not stop
Stop
Could not stop
Stop
Could not stop

Are you hurting the one you love?
When you leave them sleeping on the hollow ground
Are you hurting the one you love?
And lost for themselves

Are you hurting the one you love?
And if heaven knows, then who will stop
Are you hurting the one you love?
You said you got to heaven, but it wasn't enough

Florence + The Machine

Florence + the Machine is an English alternative band, co-founded by front-woman, Florence Welch, and keyboardist and producer, Isabella Summers. The band is managed by Mairead Nash who also managed the original duo, known at the time as ‘Florence Robot/Isa Machine’, after Florence Welch sang Etta James‘ “Something’s Got A Hold On Me” to her in a club bathroom in December 2006.

The band first found fame in their native UK. Their debut album, Lungs (2009), went Gold within the first week of release, Platinum in less than 6 months and 4x Platinum in just over a year. They broke into the USA market after an elaborate performance of “Dog Days Are Over” at the 2010 VMA’s.

Their sophomore album, Ceremonials (2011), debuted at #1 on the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand charts. The band embarked on their second arena-based tour, the Ceremonials Tour. Most dates completely sold out.
