something u hurt

Said it hurt you so much when you were hurting me

Then how'd you do it so easily?

And I don't ever wanna talk about it

Don't want your name on my lips

Justifying all of your decisions like I wasn't just a kid

But I'll get over it

Would it be easier if you walked out when you said you would?

Would it hurt less if I didn't know the kind of man you were?

Could it be true that knowing you is worse?

How do you love something you hurt?

I know you're tired all the time

From shift work and starting fights

But my best friend's father never was like you

Didn't have your temper, didn't have your moods

Is it something I do?

Looking for your car in the driveway,

Hoping I don't see you in the hallway

Is it better if I stay away?

Would it be easier if you walked out when you said you would?

Would it hurt less if I didn't know the kind of man you were?

Could it be true that knowing you is worse?

How do you love something you hurt?

But you just can't accept it, you can't take when you're not right

Tell me it's my problem and that it's all in my mind

And I see parts of you in me that I wish I could ignore

Pretend you never said that I'm not yours anymore

Would it be easier if you walked out when you said you would?

Would it hurt less if I didn't know the kind of man you were?

Could it be right that it'll never work

You lit a match and let us burn

How do you say I broke us first

How does it keep on getting worse

How do you love someone you hurt?
