Lyrics

The Hurting Words

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.

Sometimes it's so hard to show the way you feel

Sometimes it seems like the words aren't real

Sometimes it makes no difference what you're trying to say

When all the words come out wrong anyway

I've said too many words to catch them all in time

I've used the hurting words that took away your shine

Sometimes you can't keep from falling in

Obscuring waters, against the stream we swim

Sometimes I feel like drowning just to make you say

All of the words you never want to say to me now

I've said too many words to catch them all in time

I've used the hurting words that took away your shine

I've said too many words to make you, make you understand and see

There's far too many things that you and I can't say

Sometimes it's so hard to show the way you feel

Sometimes you know the words you say aren't real

Sometimes I hate myself for hating things in you

And there's no words to heal, heal all my wounds now
