Lyrics

Why Does It Hurt

When the storm is over I'll be on my way Think I want the danger Only feel the pain Then I bring the night People always come Thinking of the one Then I'm gone Running all the time Always on my mind Talking all the time about you Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting Why does it hurt All the time Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting? Why does it hurt All the time? Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? Keep on feeling the pressure Building in my mind How can I get out of here If I ignore the signs? Hold me in the dark (hold me in the dark) Kiss me one more time (kiss me one more time) This ain't gonna last and we know it So I bring the night (so I bring the night) People always come (people always come) Killing myself slowly this time Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting? Why does it hurt All the time? Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting? Why does it hurt All the time? Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? It hurts for real It's killing me I can't escape it It's killing me Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting? Why does it hurt (myself) All the time? (Why must I, why must I) Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? Why does it hurt? Why is it hurting? Why does it hurt All the time? Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time? Why must I hurt To feel something? Why must I hurt myself all the time?
