I Hope It Hurts

I met a man in Miami, Dade

I almost died when he looked my way

I felt the moon, setting too soon

He held my hand on the interstate

Had been a while since I felt this way

I bet too soon

I bet on you

Not this time, not again

It hit too hard, it knocked the wind

Unlocked the door, I don't care

It opened up, I saw it there

And what a lie, and what a game

I doused it all in gasoline

And I went home, and you went up in flames

I hope it burns

And I won't be there

I hope it hurts, everywhere

You're gonna learn

I'm happy to lose

But I hope you hurt

'Cause God knows I do

I lit the match and I walked away

I said no words and I left the state

Smoke in my eyes, I sat and cried

Headed north to the Everglades

Georgia line felt like Heaven's gate

It broke me inside

Ten thousand miles

Not this time, not again

It hit too hard, it knocked the wind

Unlocked the door, I don't care

It opened up, I saw it there

And what a lie, and what a game

I doused it all in gasoline

And I went home, and you went up in flames

And I hope it burns

And I won't be there

I hope it hurts, everywhere

You're gonna learn

I'm happy to lose

But I hope you hurt

'Cause God knows I do

I hope it hurts, I'm happy to lose

I hope you hurt

'Cause God knows I do
