"Hurts Like This" lyrics

I know we were broken by the words we never spoke until tonight
All the little things that we ignored and now we drag into the light

Holdin' back the river
Holdin' back the flood
I know we were broken by the words we never spoke until tonight
And it hurts like knowin' you're alone in the dark
And there's no way out
It hurts like tearin' you apart and your shell, but you make no sound

I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah

Hurt like, ah, ah
Hurt like, ah, ah
This

I know you had your reasons
And you're sleepin' tired of feelin' through the cracks
Everything we're doin'
All the weapons that we're using, pull us back

Holdin' back the river
Holdin' back the flood
I know you had your reasons
And you're sleepin' tired of feelin' through the cracks
And it hurts like knowin' you're alone in the dark
And there's no way out
It hurts like tearin' you apart and your shell, but you make no sound

I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
This

Hurt like this
Hurt like, ah, ah
Hurt like, ah, ah

I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
I never knew that it would hurt like this
It would hurt like this, hurt like, ah, ah
This
