It doesn't hurt me.
You want to feel how it feels?
You want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
You want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You,(be running up that hill)
You and me. (be running up that hill)
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder.
There is thunder in our hearts, baby
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, (be running up that hill)
you and me. (be running up that hill)
You and me won't be unhappy.
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
If I only could, oh...
"C'mon, baby, c'mon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience, oh..."
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
2x
"If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill."

I LOVE THIS SONG
i heard it on the premier episode of the OC season 4
but it reminds me so much of my own life.
when i hear about making a deal with god
it makes me think about how i wish i could
take the place of one of my best friends
who died in a car accident. wow
powerful.

As someone already stated.. One of the best Cover songs ever "covered"
Even that i still hold on to that Sevendust cover versions of Johnny Cashs Hurt, that he have edited and covered for Nine Inch Nail.
Enough with my nonsense. Placebo aint my favourite band but they sure did a good job on this Master piece if i maybe say =) | | 17-04-2007 10:56 Jokke2k |

| This song exacly gave me the breakdown I needed..
It perfectly explains the feelings I have inside me..
my friend died of an overdose and I didnt, even tho we both did the same ammount ( And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places)
Was the exacly same thought I had / and sometimes still have..
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...
Life's so unfair ..
This song helps u think of the ones u love and miss where God took a nice and ufair human beings life..
Great song Placebo. Thanks | | 15-05-2007 10:13 modernmyth |

this song gives me such a rush.
the first line is just, Breath taking.
it makes such satrical point too.
so many people want to be in diderent
positions in life.
everyone should just be theirselves.
no need to regret how you are.
your wasting your time wish you were
someone else.
when you could be out there changing
your self to be who you want to be.
consider my words...

| teenagequeen, I don't think that's what this song is about but that's a very interesting way of interpreting it. I had never thought of it like that. The lyrics do make sense if you look at it that way, too. |
