"Hurt This Way" lyrics

I look for my keys somewhere buried in the grass
She's riding her tail lights over the broken glass
On a highway from nowhere, hell-bent on going back

Where did she come from, where do I go?
Each time that I fall, you know it's just another show
Well, the credits keep on rolling and I'm the last to know

And it's a long, cold road tonight
And I'm wandering, without a fight

So tell me why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way

Shine it all, don't be ashamed
Nothing ever stays the same
Why you wanna hurt this way

Open the screen door, the transistor plays
An old Springsteen song, from my father's glory days
Mom's in the kitchen, tryna hide her swollen face

The old man's tying one on tight, he looks the other way
I hold in every word, there's just too much to say
I gotta rise above this madness, before I go insane

So tell me why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way

Shine it all, don't be ashamed
Nothing ever stays the same
Why you wanna hurt this way

So tell me why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way
Why you wanna hurt this way (yeah)

Shine it all, don't be ashamed
Nothing ever stays the same
Why you wanna hurt this way
