Let It Hurt

[Verse 1] 7:42 in the morning 8 seconds before it all sinks in Put your best face on for the world Fake another smile and just pretend But you're just putting off the pain Nothing's ever really gonna change [Chorus] So let it hurt, let it bleed Let it take ya right down to your knees Let it burn to the worst degree May not be what ya want But it's what ya need Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work And let it hurt, yeah, let it hurt [Verse 2] 3:28 in the morning Counting up the spaces between the rain You're getting used to the rocks at the bottom Your heart goes numb But the lonely stays the same And that's the price you're bound to pay And there's really nothing anyone can say Oh, there's only just one way [Chorus] So let it hurt, let it bleed Let it take ya right down to your knees Let it burn to the worst degree May not be what ya want But it's what ya need Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work So go on yeah, let it hurt [Outro] Ya might just find you're better for it When ya let go and you learn To let it hurt, let it bleed Let it take ya right down to your knees Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work So go on, and let it hurt Oh, let it hurt 7:42 in the morning 8 seconds before it all sinks in
