If It Hurts

[Verse 1:]
It's my fault again, it always is
Twist around my words, so they don't make sense
It's so complicating
You rope me in, then manipulate me
Up at three AM, I haven't heard from you
Imagine if I did these things to you
Now I'm contemplating
Is our love on fire fading?
Can you tell me how?

[Chorus:]
How is this supposed to work, if it hurts
If it hurts, if it hurts
When I try to use the words to explain
But it just makes it worse
I tried and I tried to trust
I gave and I gave but it wasn't enough
For what it's worth, how can I love you if it hurts?

[Verse 2:]
You found my weakest spots and dig in deep
Show up with someone new just so I can see
I act out pathetic
Told you it hurts but you still don't get it
I used to think certain things bother me more than they should
But then I realized you just make me feel misunderstood
If love is pain and pain is real
Baby, if for once you'll feel.

[Chorus:]
How this will never work, if it hurts
If it hurts, if it hurts
When I try to use the words to explain
But it just makes it worse
I tried and I tried to trust
I gave and I gave but it wasn't enough
For what it's worth, how can I love you if it hurts?

[Bridge:]
I couldn't stop myself from falling for you
You turned into someone else, I wish I knew.

[Chorus:]
It was never gonna work, if it hurts
If it hurts, if it hurts
When I try to use the words to explain
But it just makes it worse
I tried and I tried to trust
I gave and I gave but it wasn't enough
For what it's worth, how can I love you if it hurts?
