Hurt

by Millions   May 11, 2006



Swallowing you
It will engulf your bones
It will enclose your heart
This feeling deep within you
You and it, you just don’t part

Many times at night
I’ve sat and watched the sky
Thinking without you
It only makes me cry.

Look at me right now
Standing all alone
Watch me as I fall
Watch me as I burn

I could try to smile
I could even lie
I could tell you things
That’ll make you think I try
But look at all I am
This flesh and bones and blood
You think I’m just alright
But you see my friend, it hurts.

These lies
They taunt my mind
These words
They burn my throat
Everything you do
Your jokes and insults too,
You know, you’d own my heart
If only you were you

So you watch me all the time
Standing all alone
You watch me as I fall
You watch me as I burn

I could try to smile
I could even lie
I could tell you things
That’ll make you think I try
But look at all I am
This flesh and bones and blood
You think I’m just alright
But you see my friend, it hurts.

Look at all these tears
These pearly fallen drops
You seem to be ok
But baby, my hearts stopped
You’re smiling and you’re strong
But still I hope somewhere inside
You’re missing me so much
That it feels like you have died

Look down on me right now
Because I feel I’m all alone
Now watch me as I fall
Now watch me as I burn

I could try to smile
I could even lie
I could tell you things
That’ll make you think I try
But look at all I am
This flesh and bones and blood
You think I’m just alright
But you see my friend, it hurts.

Promise me one thing
That when I go, you’ll cry
Please let me hold on
Because without you, I die.

You’re the only thing I need
You’re the breath inside my heart
You’re the lonely voice of reason
And without you, I hurt.

I could smile for you
I could even lie
I could feed you words
That’ll make you think I try
But look at all I am
This flesh and bones and blood
You think doing fine
But you see my love, it hurts.

thats love.
