“Hurt!”

 hurt within today
The same as yesterday
I embrace my pain
Trusting in my heart
Their absence is my wound
The old familiar thing
Trying to give it, everyday
But sadly they’ve left, sad to say

What have I done?
Why am I last?
All of my passion and love
Goes to her in the end
And she will take it all
All my pain and hurt
Even after I’m gone
My soul shall carry on through hurt

I am the king of old
Sitting in my plain old chair
Full of love-filled dreams
That have escaped my care
Beneath the strains of loss
The feelings ebb and flow
You’re with someone else
I am still right here

What have I done?
Why am I last?
All of my passion and love
Go to her in the end
And she will take it all
All my pain and hurt
Even after I’m gone
My soul shall carry on through hurt

If I could start again
Right here is where I’d be
I’m not going to risk myself
My soul is mine today
