"Bleed Like Me" is a song by American rock band Garbage and the title-track of their fourth studio album (2005).[1] It was released as the album's second single in North America by Geffen Records imprint Almo Sounds on May 9, 2005. It reached number 27 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. Club mixes of the track sent the remix package into the top ten of the Billboard dance chart.[2] The song received positive reviews from critics, who highlighted it as the centrepiece of the album.

In the United Kingdom, despite initially being scheduled as the second single, "Sex Is Not The Enemy" was released in place of "Bleed Like Me", while in Europe and Australia, the single was replaced with "Run Baby Run".[3] Garbage shot music videos for all three singles with director Sophie Muller.[4]
