Hurt
tone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

5 AM, I'm wide awake
I call you 'cause it's getting late
It feels like I'm about to break
When you're so far away
6 AM, I had enough
These sleepless nights are kind of rough
Don't wanna be the runner-up
How did we get so stuck?

You leave me when it's raining in the middle of the night
I used to feel the heat, but now I'm blinded by the light
I'm hanging on to memories I couldn't leave behind
Just take me back to the start

'Cause we won't say our goodbyes
We've been through this so many times
And we know that we'll be alright
But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes
I don't wanna fight
But my heart beats in double time
Yeah, I know that we'll be alright
But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes

Remember how we were before
We used to have it all and more
And now I'm lost and insecure
Is this worth fighting for?

You leave me when it's raining in the middle of the night
I used to feel the heat, but now I'm blinded by the light
I'm hanging on to memories I couldn't leave behind
Just take me back to the start

'Cause we won't say our goodbyes
We've been through this so many times
And we know that we'll be alright
But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes
I don't wanna fight
But my heart beats in double time
Yeah, I know that we'll be alright
But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes

I'm not giving up, not today
You and I can go all the way
We got a chance, we'll make it, I swear
We'll make it, I know there's a way
And it hurts sometimes

We won't say our goodbyes
We've been through this so many times
And we know that we'll be alright
But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes
I don't wanna fight
But my heart beats in double time
Yeah, I know that we'll be alright




But loving you, loving you
Hurts sometimes

[Chorus: Lil Tone]
I can't even lie to you I be feelin' hurt
Everytime it get better it be gettin' worse
I can't even hit you up, I put it inna verse
You ain't ever do me wrong, I always do it first
I do you wrong and than I wonder what I do it for
I can't force you in this shit if you don't want it tho'
If you ain't rocking with me, than you gotta let me know
The way I do you know it ain't that hard to let me go

[Verse: Lil Tone]
I'm fuckin' up and I'm just hating what I put you through
You don't be doing me wrong but I be doing you
You don't believe me but you really hard to fuckin' lose
You deserve a better nigga I'm so fuckin' rude
If you don't want me in yo life know I understand
I can't even tell you sorry cause I always am
To be honest baby you could find uh better man
I keep fuckin' up yo life maybe that's who I am
Just know I love you and I hope you really know that shit
I'm telling you I'm finna change but I don't ever quit
When I was down you put me up I hope you know that shit
Don't expect you to be with me and just go with it
I know you hate it when I'm sorry but I really am
Wish we could take it to the past and do it all again
It's fuckin' wit me that we really at a fuckin' end
If you don't want me in yo life can I just be your friend?
If you done, can you tell me that?
I know your tired of my ways how I be doing that
And I don't really wanna hurt you, do you want me back?
I know I really got you hurtin' you ain't needin' that
But I ain't fuckin' with no body else
And when I leave you I be thinkin' bout my fuckin' self
I take you down and I keep putting you back on the shelf
I know I hurt you and it's really fuckin' with my health


[Chorus: Lil Tone]
I can't even lie to you I be feelin' hurt
Everytime it get better it be gettin' worse
I can't even hit you up, I put it inna verse
You ain't ever do me wrong, I always do it first
I do you wrong and than I wonder what I do it for
I can't force you in this shit if you don't want it tho'
If you ain't rocking with me, than you gotta let me know
The way I do you know it ain't that hard to let me go

My gf of around 5 years just broke up with me because I found out she was cheating on me. This shit completely broke my heart and every day I’ve just sat in bed just wondering what I could of done better. Shit got me feeling suicidal and I feel like my life has come to a complete end. This song has helped me get through that stage. Thank you so much for such a amazing piece.
