The band was originally a six-piece, with a dual-vocal system of harmonised vocals and powerful screams, made up of Mark Andrews and Daniel Lawrence. The guitarists were Tom Diamond and Alun Burnet-Smith, with Duncan McGilvary playing bass and Darren Toms on drums.
Andrews left the band mid-way through their stint on the 2004 Vans Warped Tour, with guitarist Alun Burnet-Smith leaving shortly after their return to the UK. He was soon replaced with the bands guitar tech, Adam Yeoman, who soon became the band's new drummer. Daniel Lawrence left shortly thereafter, leaving the band as a four-piece in desperate need of a new vocalist. Ivan Ferreira stepped in and the band begun writing as a five-piece, with guitarist Tom Diamond taking on a large amount of the singing responsibilities.
The band enjoyed success in both the UK and America thanks to their labels Golf (in the UK), and Victory (in the US), and toured with such big-name acts as Taking Back Sunday, Underoath and Poison The Well.
They re-formed in 2019 and announced some shows in 2020.

Come Home
The Hurt Process Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leaving slowly, like the snow, like the snow
With lies you told, lies you told melted us
Lies you told, lies you told, lies you told, words that scold
Run for you know, come home, run far
From here, far from here, far from here
Run for you know, come home, run far
Secrets drop, now you go, now you go
Turn away, turn away with the winds that blow
Silently, softly, softly, silent, silent, softly
Softly, silent, silent, softly
Now you go, run for you know, come home, run far
From here, far from here, far from here
Run for you know, come home, run far
From here, far from here, far from here
(Run for you know)
Take your hatred for me
(Run for you know)
Take your spreading disease
(Run for you know)
Take your hatred for me
(Run for you)
Run for you know, come home, run far
From here, far from here, far from here
Run for you know, come home, run far
From here, far from here, far from here
Far from here, far from here
(Run for you know, from here)
Far from here, far from here
Far from here, far from here
Come home, run far, come home, run far
(Run for you know, from here)
Come home, run far, far from here
Far from here, far from here
The Hurt Process’s song “Come Home” is a poignant and introspective ballad depicting the aftermath of a broken relationship. The song vividly captures the emotions of betrayal, pain, and anger that the singer experiences after being left by their partner. The lyrics rely heavily on metaphorical imagery to convey the singer’s feelings of helplessness and isolation.
The opening lines “Tortured me, now you go, now you go/Leaving slowly, like the snow, like the snow” paint a vivid picture of a person who has been hurt and is now feeling abandoned by their partner. The metaphorical reference of “snow” indicates that the leaving is a slow and gradual process, as opposed to a sudden and forceful departure. The chorus “Run for you know, come home, run far/From here, far from here, far from here” implores the singer’s partner to either come back or leave entirely, as they are unable to handle the pain of being left in limbo.
Moreover, as the verses progress, the lyrics reveal the cause of the relationship breakdown. The lines “Secrets drop, now you go, now you go/Turn away, turn away with the winds that blow” suggest that the partner was keeping secrets, leading to the erosion of the relationship. The refrain “Take your hatred for me/Take your spreading disease/Take your hatred for me” seems to be a direct indictment of the partner’s behavior.
Overall, the song is a powerful portrayal of the pain of a broken relationship and the raw emotions that come along with it.

Tortured me, now you go, now you go
You caused me pain and now you are leaving
Leaving slowly, like the snow, like the snow
You are leaving gradually, just like the snow melts away slowly
With lies you told, lies you told melted us
Your lies have caused the destruction of our relationship
Lies you told, lies you told, lies you told, words that scold
Your continuous lies have hurt me and made me feel scolded
Run for you know, come home, run far
You should flee, then come home after running far away
From here, far from here, far from here
You should go far away and not be close to me anymore
Secrets drop, now you go, now you go
You are keeping secrets and now you're leaving
Turn away, turn away with the winds that blow
You're turning your back on me, like the wind that changes direction
Silently, softly, softly, silent, silent, softly
Your leaving is quiet and gentle, but it is still happening
Take your hatred for me
You should take your anger towards me
Take your spreading disease
You should take away the toxic influence you have on me
Run for you know, come home, run far
You should run away before it's too late and then come back after being far away
Far from here, far from here
You should go away to a far-off place
Come home, run far, far from here
You should come back home, but only after running far away from here
