[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away, I’ve got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

[Chorus]
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now, I’ll run from you
This tainted love that you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love

[Verse 2]
Now, I know I've got to
Run away, I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you think love's to pray
But I'm sorry, I don’t pray that way

[Chorus]
Once I ran to you (Oncе I did)
Now, I’ll run from you
This tainted love that you've givеn
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that’s not nearly all
Tainted love (Tainted love)
Tainted love
Oh, tainted love (Tainted love)

[Outro]
Don't touch me, please
I cannot stand the way you tease
Tainted love
Tainted love
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Sepultura

Sepultura is a Brazilian heavy metal band from Belo Horizonte. Formed in 1984 by brothers Max and Igor Cavalera, the band was a major force in the death metal, thrash metal and groove metal genres during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their later experiments drawing influence from alternative metal, world music, nu metal, hardcore punk and industrial metal.

The first Sepultura show was on December 4th, 1984. The band played two songs that never were re-recorded or released.

The band name comes from a Portuguese translation of Motörhead’s song “Dancing on Your Grave” which is “Dançando na sua Sepultura”. Sepultura means “grave” (sepulchre) in Portuguese (and in some other Latin-based languages). Originally, they wanted to call the band Tropa de Choque (Shock Troops), but found that the name had been used before.
