Let It Hurt

[Verse 1]
7:42 in the morning
8 seconds before it all sinks in
Put your best face on for the world
Fake another smile and just pretend
But you're just putting off the pain
Nothing's ever really gonna change

[Chorus]
So let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take ya right down to your knees
Let it burn to the worst degree
May not be what ya want
But it's what ya need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
And let it hurt, yeah, let it hurt

[Verse 2]
3:28 in the morning
Counting up the spaces between the rain
You're getting used to the rocks at the bottom
Your heart goes numb
But the lonely stays the same
And that's the price you're bound to pay
And there's really nothing anyone can say
Oh, there's only just one way

[Chorus]
So let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take ya right down to your knees
Let it burn to the worst degree
May not be what ya want
But it's what ya need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
So go on yeah, let it hurt

[Outro]
Ya might just find you're better for it
When ya let go and you learn
To let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take ya right down to your knees
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
So go on, and let it hurt
Oh, let it hurt
7:42 in the morning
8 seconds before it all sinks in
