Hurtful Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Cause these days are so fucking dark
You put a knife right through my heart
I feel this vacant tendencies
I don't want to deal with this
I don't want to deal with this
My loneliness just kicks in
God I'm just here for you
Why can't you see that too
My fantasy left me dead to speak
As you drift away like you should but
I'm falling now like everyday like
What's new I got nothing to say
Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Cause these days are so fucking dark
You put a knife right through my heart
I feel this vacant tendencies
I don't want to deal with this
I'm drinking I'm driving and
I know that you don't like that but
I can not deal with something
I don't have full control so
I grab the bottle to numb this pain
I'm far from sane hey what's up babe
Nothing much I guess that's how it is
Every single day so I just quit
Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Baby don't go away
I've been feeling this pain today
Voices in my head and they won't shut up
Tired getting asked if I'm okay
Cause these days are so fucking dark
You put a knife right through my heart




I feel this vacant tendencies
I don't want to deal with this
