You were a pain, girl
|
A thorn in my side
|
Drove me insane, girl
|
A white knuckle ride
|
|
So why do I go lookin' through old photographs
|
Chase you down the hallway of our checkered past
|
Hold on for dear life and keep the fire fed
|
I ought to let go but instead...
|
|
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
|
Cause if it still hurts
|
Right now that's all I've got left of you
|
Everybody knows that just makes it worse
|
But still I do
|
|
I could start a new life
|
I could move on
|
I could do a drive-by
|
And see if you're home
|
|
Now there's a fine fine line between a memory
|
And something any shrink would call an injury
|
But it's not over long as you're still hurting me
|
And as I turn onto your street
|
|
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
|
Cause if it still hurts
|
Right now that's all I've got left of you
|
Anybody knows that just makes it worse
|
But still I do
|
Still I do
|
Still I do
|
Still love you
|
|
She's the kind of girl put your world on hold
|
Lock the house and you check your phone
|
Gave up the ghost and the ghost keeps holdin' on
|
You run from the sun but she cursed the rain
|
Lost her love so you nurse the pain
|
Going on and on and on
|
Singing that same song
|
|
But she's comin' along
|
[?]
|
Can't just let it heal
|
The broken heart and the bitter taste
|
No I can't just let it go
|
You light it up cause she'd burn you down
|
Can't just let it heal
|
Smokin' those memories [?]
|
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
|
Yeah that's the thing about love and pain
|
