So Good
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mama, I love this boy
He plays the cat and I play the toy
And he runs me all over town
He takes me up and then he brings me down
He holds my hand and when he takes the bite
Out of my confidence and dims my light
But it’s in my body and in my brain
One look at him and I can feel the pain
Why does it hurt so good?
You don’t treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good
I just want you to tell me
Why does it hurt so good?
You don’t treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good
I just need you to tell me (why?)
It’s an addiction that I cannot fight
Don’t want to stop, don’t wanna make it right
'Cause when it's wrong you know it’s such a thrill
He plays a hunter and I play his kill
And if I ever try to turn away
He gets excited and it makes me stay
But it’s a drug that never numbs the pain
And I’m the only one to blame (so)
Why does it hurt so good?
You don’t treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good
I just want you to tell me
Why does it hurt so good?
You don’t treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good
I just need you to tell me (why?)
