I walk the streets you cross my way
|
I try to hide and turn my face away
|
You ask me how I feel
|
|
A love so real has just passed away
|
I lost it all before the end of the day
|
But don't worry
|
Here's what you can't see
|
|
Everything's alright with me
|
Everything's right with me
|
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Oh, love can be so cruel
|
Gives hope and then destroys your dreams
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Now let me live my life
|
I've got to get you out of me
|
|
So if you cut out wounded flesh
|
Just be aware that there's nothing left
|
Avoiding blood poisoning
|
|
I close my eyes and still I see
|
The happiness surrounding you and me
|
And this illusion it just makes sure that
|
|
Everything's alright with me
|
Everything's ok with me
|
Everything's so fine you see
|
Yes everything's right with me
|
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Oh, love can be so cruel
|
Gives hope and then destroys your dreams
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Now let me live my life
|
|
Because
|
(It only hurts when I breathe)
|
I can walk I can run
|
I can do my thing
|
(It only hurts when I breathe)
|
I can eat, I can sleep
|
I can dance and sing
|
(Oh uouh)
|
You see I'm strong
|
Don't get me wrong
|
No single tear
|
Since you've been gone
|
I can breathe
|
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Oh, love can be so cruel
|
Gives hope and then destroys your dreams
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Now let me live my life
|
I've got to get you out of me
|
|
It only hurts when I breathe
|
Now let me live my life
|
I've got to face reality
|
