Lyrics From Demo
[Verse 1]
I had a friend I knew in the ninth grade
And he didn't come to class one day
'Cause they found something inside his brain
So they sent him home
So, I went to see him after school
I said, "Is there something I can do
That might make you feel more comfortable?"
And he told me, "No"
[Pre-Chorus]
He said, "I'm happy that you made it, please don't treat me like your patient
I don't need more medication", mm
[Chorus]
The only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
So, anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
'Cause, if I'm numb, I might as well be underneath the dirt
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
Is 'cause it hurts
[Verse 2]
And I won't forget the things he said
Every time I start to feel depressed
To be grateful that I still have breath down inside my lungs
'Cause without the darkness, there's no light
And without the pain, there'd be no life
So, even when it hurts inside, I won't try to run
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll be happy that I made it, I'll be open, I'll embrace it
I won't take no medication, mm
[Chorus]
The only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
So, anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
'Cause, if I'm numb, I might as well be underneath the dirt
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
Is 'cause it hurts
The only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
So, anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
'Cause, if I'm numb, I might as well be underneath the dirt, mm-mm
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is 'cause it hurts
[Outro]
Dum-da-da, dum-da-da, dum-da-da-da
Is 'cause it hurts
Dum-da-da, dum-da-da, dum-da-da-da (Mm-mm, mm, mm)
Is 'cause it hurts
Dum-da-da, dum-da-da, dum-da-da-da
Is 'cause it hurts
