Hurts
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.
Thunder clouds when you walked in
But I never fill with dread when you're talkin’
Only meet me in the drought when you're fallin'
(You never ask me) How I like my eggs in the mornin’
(You never ask me)
Takin' comfort in my shadow
(Shadow)
But you seem to stay afloat 'cause you're shallow
You can never make a promise for tomorrow
'Cause all the time you choose to take has been borrowed
I just pull up, then skrrt
You just pull up when it hurts
Why, oh why?
Why, oh why?
I just pull up, then skrrt
You just pull up when it hurts
Why, oh why?
Why, oh why?
Daylight was still creepin' through my window
Now I've got you back in my home
Now I move in from the shadows
Daylight was still creepin' through my window
Now I’ve got you back in my home
Now I move in from the shadows
Thunder clouds, so I’m walkin'
I don’t need to take a hit from your talkin'
When the hurricane comes, I'm on back roads
(I'm on back roads)
When the hurt game comes, you do not know
(You do not know)
Oh, I feel the clouds of change
When I’m ridin' in my spaceship
Callin' out your rain
'Cause it's no one's time to soak it
You left me hopeless, swimmin' in your ocean
Got me thinkin' twice what I'm involved in
I just pull up, then skrrt
You just pull up when it hurts
Why, oh why?
Why, oh why?
I just pull up, then
You just pull up when it hurts
Why, oh why?
Why, oh why?
Daylight was still creepin' through my window
Now I've got you back in my home
Now I move in from the shadows
Daylight was still creepin' through my window
Now I've got you back in my phone
Now I move in from the shadows
So I just pull up, then skrrt
You just pull up when it hurts
Why, oh why?
Why, oh why?
Pull up, then skrrt
Pull up, pull up when it hurts
Pull up, pull up, then skrrt
Pull up, pull up when it hurts
Pull up, pull up, then skrrt
Pull up, pull up when it hurts
Pull up, pull up, then skrrt
Pull up, pull up when it hurts
